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 168 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 168 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

168 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 168 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 99.537278617797 kt

The final result is:

168 ft/s → 99.537278617797 kt

We conclude that 168 feet per second is equivalent to 99.537278617797 knots:

168 feet per second = 99.537278617797 knots

Alternative conversion
