1000/25 = 40 seconds
Five feet per minute equates to 0.083 feet (about 1 inch) per second.
Multiply by 3600.
To find the change in height per second, we divide the total change in height by the total time taken. In this case, the change in height is 5000 feet and the total time is 200 seconds. Therefore, the change in height per second is 5000 feet / 200 seconds = 25 feet per second.
Easy! Divide by 200. So 1000 feet per minute = 5 metres per second (roughly). It also equals 10 knots incidentally.
