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 516 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 516 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
516 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 516 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 305.72164146895 kt
The final result is:
516 ft/s → 305.72164146895 kt
We conclude that 516 feet per second is equivalent to 305.72164146895 knots:
516 feet per second = 305.72164146895 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0032709493354646 × 516 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 516 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0032709493354646 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred sixteen feet per second is approximately three hundred five point seven two two knots:
516 ft/s ≅ 305.722 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero three times five hundred sixteen feet per second.
