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 24.2 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 24.2 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
24.2 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 24.2 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 14.338107991373 kt
The final result is:
24.2 ft/s → 14.338107991373 kt
We conclude that 24.2 feet per second is equivalent to 14.338107991373 knots:
24.2 feet per second = 14.338107991373 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.069744208971064 × 24.2 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 24.2 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.069744208971064 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-four point two feet per second is approximately fourteen point three three eight knots:
24.2 ft/s ≅ 14.338 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero seven times twenty-four point two feet per second.
