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 235 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 235 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

235 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 235 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 396.63531641844 ft/s

The final result is:

235 kt → 396.63531641844 ft/s

We conclude that 235 knots is equivalent to 396.63531641844 feet per second:

235 knots = 396.63531641844 feet per second

Alternative conversion
