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 1939 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1939 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

1939 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1939 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1148.8260907137 kt

The final result is:

1939 ft/s → 1148.8260907137 kt

We conclude that 1939 feet per second is equivalent to 1148.8260907137 knots:

1939 feet per second = 1148.8260907137 knots

Alternative conversion
