Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to knots is 0.59248380129641, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.59248380129641 knots:

1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 1060 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1060 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

1060 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 1060 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 628.03282937419 kt

The final result is:

1060 ft/s → 628.03282937419 kt

We conclude that 1060 feet per second is equivalent to 628.03282937419 knots:

1060 feet per second = 628.03282937419 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0015922734500941 × 1060 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 1060 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0015922734500941 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand sixty feet per second is approximately six hundred twenty-eight point zero three three knots:

1060 ft/s ≅ 628.033 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times one thousand sixty feet per second.
