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 34 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 34 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

34 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 34 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 20.144449244078 kt

The final result is:

34 ft/s → 20.144449244078 kt

We conclude that 34 feet per second is equivalent to 20.144449244078 knots:

34 feet per second = 20.144449244078 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.049641466385286 × 34 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 34 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.049641466385286 knots.

Approximate result

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

34 ft/s ≅ 20.144 kt

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