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 517 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 517 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
517 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 517 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 306.31412527024 kt
The final result is:
517 ft/s → 306.31412527024 kt
We conclude that 517 feet per second is equivalent to 306.31412527024 knots:
517 feet per second = 306.31412527024 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0032646225475817 × 517 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 517 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0032646225475817 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred seventeen feet per second is approximately three hundred six point three one four knots:
517 ft/s ≅ 306.314 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero three times five hundred seventeen feet per second.
