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 143 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 143 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
143 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 143 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 84.725183585386 kt
The final result is:
143 ft/s → 84.725183585386 kt
We conclude that 143 feet per second is equivalent to 84.725183585386 knots:
143 feet per second = 84.725183585386 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.011802866133565 × 143 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 143 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.011802866133565 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred forty-three feet per second is approximately eighty-four point seven two five knots:
143 ft/s ≅ 84.725 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one two times one hundred forty-three feet per second.
