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 118.5 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 118.5 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

118.5 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 118.5 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 70.209330453624 kt

The final result is:

118.5 ft/s → 70.209330453624 kt

We conclude that 118.5 feet per second is equivalent to 70.209330453624 knots:

118.5 feet per second = 70.209330453624 knots
