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 509.2 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 509.2 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

509.2 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 509.2 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 301.69275162013 kt

The final result is:

509.2 ft/s → 301.69275162013 kt

We conclude that 509.2 feet per second is equivalent to 301.69275162013 knots:

509.2 feet per second = 301.69275162013 knots
