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 175 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 175 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

175 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 175 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 103.68466522687 kt

The final result is:

175 ft/s → 103.68466522687 kt

We conclude that 175 feet per second is equivalent to 103.68466522687 knots:

175 feet per second = 103.68466522687 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0096446277548556 × 175 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 175 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0096446277548556 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred seventy-five feet per second is approximately one hundred three point six eight five knots:

175 ft/s ≅ 103.685 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one times one hundred seventy-five feet per second.
