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 440 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 440 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

440 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 440 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 260.69287257042 kt

The final result is:

440 ft/s → 260.69287257042 kt

We conclude that 440 feet per second is equivalent to 260.69287257042 knots:

440 feet per second = 260.69287257042 knots

Alternative conversion
