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 140 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 140 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
140 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 140 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 82.947732181497 kt
The final result is:
140 ft/s → 82.947732181497 kt
We conclude that 140 feet per second is equivalent to 82.947732181497 knots:
140 feet per second = 82.947732181497 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.01205578469357 × 140 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 140 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.01205578469357 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred forty feet per second is approximately eighty-two point nine four eight knots:
140 ft/s ≅ 82.948 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one two times one hundred forty feet per second.
