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 1583 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1583 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

1583 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1583 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 937.90185745221 kt

The final result is:

1583 ft/s → 937.90185745221 kt

We conclude that 1583 feet per second is equivalent to 937.90185745221 knots:

1583 feet per second = 937.90185745221 knots

Alternative conversion
