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 49.9 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 49.9 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
49.9 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 49.9 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 29.564941684691 kt
The final result is:
49.9 ft/s → 29.564941684691 kt
We conclude that 49.9 feet per second is equivalent to 29.564941684691 knots:
49.9 feet per second = 29.564941684691 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.033823844831658 × 49.9 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 49.9 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.033823844831658 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty-nine point nine feet per second is approximately twenty-nine point five six five knots:
49.9 ft/s ≅ 29.565 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three four times forty-nine point nine feet per second.
