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 46.8 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 46.8 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
46.8 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 46.8 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 27.728241900672 kt
The final result is:
46.8 ft/s → 27.728241900672 kt
We conclude that 46.8 feet per second is equivalent to 27.728241900672 knots:
46.8 feet per second = 27.728241900672 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.036064313185892 × 46.8 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 46.8 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.036064313185892 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty-six point eight feet per second is approximately twenty-seven point seven two eight knots:
46.8 ft/s ≅ 27.728 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three six times forty-six point eight feet per second.
