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 448 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 448 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

448 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 448 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 265.43274298079 kt

The final result is:

448 ft/s → 265.43274298079 kt

We conclude that 448 feet per second is equivalent to 265.43274298079 knots:

448 feet per second = 265.43274298079 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0037674327167405 × 448 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 448 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0037674327167405 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four hundred forty-eight feet per second is approximately two hundred sixty-five point four three three knots:

448 ft/s ≅ 265.433 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times four hundred forty-eight feet per second.
