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 51.1 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 51.1 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
51.1 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 51.1 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 30.275922246246 kt
The final result is:
51.1 ft/s → 30.275922246246 kt
We conclude that 51.1 feet per second is equivalent to 30.275922246246 knots:
51.1 feet per second = 30.275922246246 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.03302954710567 × 51.1 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 51.1 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.03302954710567 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifty-one point one feet per second is approximately thirty point two seven six knots:
51.1 ft/s ≅ 30.276 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three three times fifty-one point one feet per second.
