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 431 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 431 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
431 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 431 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 255.36051835875 kt
The final result is:
431 ft/s → 255.36051835875 kt
We conclude that 431 feet per second is equivalent to 255.36051835875 knots:
431 feet per second = 255.36051835875 knots
Alternative conversion
