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 389 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 389 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
389 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 389 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 230.4761987043 kt
The final result is:
389 ft/s → 230.4761987043 kt
We conclude that 389 feet per second is equivalent to 230.4761987043 knots:
389 feet per second = 230.4761987043 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0043388428203078 × 389 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 389 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0043388428203078 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred eighty-nine feet per second is approximately two hundred thirty point four seven six knots:
389 ft/s ≅ 230.476 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times three hundred eighty-nine feet per second.
