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 1561 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1561 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

1561 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1561 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 924.86721382369 kt

The final result is:

1561 ft/s → 924.86721382369 kt

We conclude that 1561 feet per second is equivalent to 924.86721382369 knots:

1561 feet per second = 924.86721382369 knots

Alternative conversion
