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 23.9 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 23.9 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
23.9 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 23.9 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 14.160362850984 kt
The final result is:
23.9 ft/s → 14.160362850984 kt
We conclude that 23.9 feet per second is equivalent to 14.160362850984 knots:
23.9 feet per second = 14.160362850984 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.070619659292876 × 23.9 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 23.9 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.070619659292876 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-three point nine feet per second is approximately fourteen point one six knots:
23.9 ft/s ≅ 14.16 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero seven one times twenty-three point nine feet per second.
