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 1248 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1248 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
1248 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 1248 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 739.41978401792 kt
The final result is:
1248 ft/s → 739.41978401792 kt
We conclude that 1248 feet per second is equivalent to 739.41978401792 knots:
