About Foot per Second (ft/s)

Used primarily in ballistics, fluid dynamics, and some US engineering applications, feet per second measures relatively slow speeds in imperial units. Bullet muzzle velocities are commonly given in fps (e.g., 2,800 fps for a rifle round), and elevator speeds in tall buildings are often specified in feet per second.

About Mach (Ma)

The Mach number expresses speed as a ratio to the local speed of sound, which varies with temperature and altitude. At sea level and 20 degrees C, Mach 1 is approximately 1,235 km/h. Fighter jets routinely exceed Mach 2, and the retired Concorde cruised at Mach 2.04.
