Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:

1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s

To convert 314 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 314 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s

314 kt → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 314 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 529.97229512932 ft/s

The final result is:

314 kt → 529.97229512932 ft/s

We conclude that 314 knots is equivalent to 529.97229512932 feet per second:

314 knots = 529.97229512932 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0018868910869312 × 314 knots.

Another way is saying that 314 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0018868910869312 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred fourteen knots is approximately five hundred twenty-nine point nine seven two feet per second:

314 kt ≅ 529.972 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times three hundred fourteen knots.
