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 26.5 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 26.5 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

26.5 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 26.5 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 15.700820734355 kt

The final result is:

26.5 ft/s → 15.700820734355 kt

We conclude that 26.5 feet per second is equivalent to 15.700820734355 knots:

26.5 feet per second = 15.700820734355 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.063690938003764 × 26.5 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 26.5 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.063690938003764 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-six point five feet per second is approximately fifteen point seven zero one knots:

26.5 ft/s ≅ 15.701 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero six four times twenty-six point five feet per second.
