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 1958 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1958 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

1958 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1958 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1160.0832829384 kt

The final result is:

1958 ft/s → 1160.0832829384 kt

We conclude that 1958 feet per second is equivalent to 1160.0832829384 knots:

1958 feet per second = 1160.0832829384 knots

Alternative conversion
