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 449 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 449 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

449 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 449 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 266.02522678209 kt

The final result is:

449 ft/s → 266.02522678209 kt

We conclude that 449 feet per second is equivalent to 266.02522678209 knots:

449 feet per second = 266.02522678209 knots

Alternative conversion
