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 299 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 299 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

299 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 299 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 177.15265658763 kt

The final result is:

299 ft/s → 177.15265658763 kt

We conclude that 299 feet per second is equivalent to 177.15265658763 knots:

299 feet per second = 177.15265658763 knots

Alternative conversion
