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 265 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 265 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

265 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 265 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 157.00820734355 kt

The final result is:

265 ft/s → 157.00820734355 kt

We conclude that 265 feet per second is equivalent to 157.00820734355 knots:

265 feet per second = 157.00820734355 knots

Alternative conversion
