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 121 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 121 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

121 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 121 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 71.690539956865 kt

The final result is:

121 ft/s → 71.690539956865 kt

We conclude that 121 feet per second is equivalent to 71.690539956865 knots:

121 feet per second = 71.690539956865 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.013948841794213 × 121 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 121 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.013948841794213 knots.

Approximate result

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

121 ft/s ≅ 71.691 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one four times one hundred twenty-one feet per second.
