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 481 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 481 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
481 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 481 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 284.98470842357 kt
The final result is:
481 ft/s → 284.98470842357 kt
We conclude that 481 feet per second is equivalent to 284.98470842357 knots:
481 feet per second = 284.98470842357 knots
Alternative conversion
