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 200 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 200 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

200 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 200 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 118.49676025928 kt

The final result is:

200 ft/s → 118.49676025928 kt

We conclude that 200 feet per second is equivalent to 118.49676025928 knots:

200 feet per second = 118.49676025928 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0084390492854987 × 200 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 200 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0084390492854987 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two hundred feet per second is approximately one hundred eighteen point four nine seven knots:

200 ft/s ≅ 118.497 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero eight times two hundred feet per second.
