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 50.3 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 50.3 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

50.3 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 50.3 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 29.801935205209 kt

The final result is:

50.3 ft/s → 29.801935205209 kt

We conclude that 50.3 feet per second is equivalent to 29.801935205209 knots:

50.3 feet per second = 29.801935205209 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.033554867934388 × 50.3 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 50.3 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.033554867934388 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifty point three feet per second is approximately twenty-nine point eight zero two knots:

50.3 ft/s ≅ 29.802 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three four times fifty point three feet per second.
