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 19.5 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 19.5 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

19.5 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 19.5 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 11.55343412528 kt

The final result is:

19.5 ft/s → 11.55343412528 kt

We conclude that 19.5 feet per second is equivalent to 11.55343412528 knots:

19.5 feet per second = 11.55343412528 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.08655435164614 × 19.5 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 19.5 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.08655435164614 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nineteen point five feet per second is approximately eleven point five five three knots:

19.5 ft/s ≅ 11.553 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero eight seven times nineteen point five feet per second.
