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 238 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 238 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
238 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 238 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 401.69874598974 ft/s
The final result is:
238 kt → 401.69874598974 ft/s
We conclude that 238 knots is equivalent to 401.69874598974 feet per second:
238 knots = 401.69874598974 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0024894277365395 × 238 knots.
Another way is saying that 238 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0024894277365395 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two hundred thirty-eight knots is approximately four hundred one point six nine nine feet per second:
238 kt ≅ 401.699 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times two hundred thirty-eight knots.
