Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 slug/(ft·s) to pounds per foot second:
We need to convert slugs per foot second to pounds per foot second
Since 1 slug/(ft·s) = 32.174048022 lb/(ft·s), multiply by 32.174048022
5 × 32.174048022 = 160.87024011
5 slug/(ft·s) = 160.87024011 lb/(ft·s)

About These Units
Slug per Foot Second (slug/(ft·s))
Slugs per foot-second (slug/(ft·s)) equals 47.88 Pa·s. Uses the slug (mass unit) for consistent force-mass-acceleration in imperial fluid dynamics. Equivalent to lbf·s/ft². Common in US aerospace and mechanical engineering calculations.
Pound per Foot Second (lb/(ft·s))
Pounds per foot-second (lb/(ft·s)) is an imperial viscosity unit equal to 1.488 Pa·s. Uses mass rather than force. Also called pound-mass per foot-second. Water at 20°C: 6.7×10⁻⁴ lb/(ft·s). Common in US fluid mechanics textbooks.
