Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:

1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s

To convert 199 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 199 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s

199 kt → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 199 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 335.87416156285 ft/s

The final result is:

199 kt → 335.87416156285 ft/s

We conclude that 199 knots is equivalent to 335.87416156285 feet per second:

199 knots = 335.87416156285 feet per second

Alternative conversion
