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 1258 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1258 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

1258 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1258 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 745.34462203088 kt

The final result is:

1258 ft/s → 745.34462203088 kt

We conclude that 1258 feet per second is equivalent to 745.34462203088 knots:

1258 feet per second = 745.34462203088 knots

Alternative conversion
