Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:
1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s
To convert 138.4 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 138.4 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s
138.4 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 138.4 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 233.5928842226 ft/s
The final result is:
138.4 kt → 233.5928842226 ft/s
We conclude that 138.4 knots is equivalent to 233.5928842226 feet per second:
138.4 knots = 233.5928842226 feet per second
