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 144.9 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 144.9 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
144.9 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 144.9 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 244.56364829375 ft/s
The final result is:
144.9 kt → 244.56364829375 ft/s
We conclude that 144.9 knots is equivalent to 244.56364829375 feet per second:
144.9 knots = 244.56364829375 feet per second
