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 2231 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2231 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

2231 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2231 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1321.8313606923 kt

The final result is:

2231 ft/s → 1321.8313606923 kt

We conclude that 2231 feet per second is equivalent to 1321.8313606923 knots:

2231 feet per second = 1321.8313606923 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00075652615737326 × 2231 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 2231 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00075652615737326 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two thousand two hundred thirty-one feet per second is approximately one thousand three hundred twenty-one point eight three one knots:

2231 ft/s ≅ 1321.831 kt

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