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 243 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 243 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

243 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 243 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 143.97356371503 kt

The final result is:

243 ft/s → 143.97356371503 kt

We conclude that 243 feet per second is equivalent to 143.97356371503 knots:

243 feet per second = 143.97356371503 knots

Alternative conversion
