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 185 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 185 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

185 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 185 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 109.60950323984 kt

The final result is:

185 ft/s → 109.60950323984 kt

We conclude that 185 feet per second is equivalent to 109.60950323984 knots:

185 feet per second = 109.60950323984 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0091232965248634 × 185 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 185 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0091232965248634 knots.

Approximate result

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

185 ft/s ≅ 109.61 kt

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