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 317 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 317 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

317 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 317 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 187.81736501096 kt

The final result is:

317 ft/s → 187.81736501096 kt

We conclude that 317 feet per second is equivalent to 187.81736501096 knots:

317 feet per second = 187.81736501096 knots

Alternative conversion
