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 512 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 512 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

512 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 512 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 303.35170626376 kt

The final result is:

512 ft/s → 303.35170626376 kt

We conclude that 512 feet per second is equivalent to 303.35170626376 knots:

512 feet per second = 303.35170626376 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0032965036271479 × 512 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 512 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0032965036271479 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred twelve feet per second is approximately three hundred three point three five two knots:

512 ft/s ≅ 303.352 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero three times five hundred twelve feet per second.
