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 52 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 52 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

52 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 52 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 30.809157667413 kt

The final result is:

52 ft/s → 30.809157667413 kt

We conclude that 52 feet per second is equivalent to 30.809157667413 knots:

52 feet per second = 30.809157667413 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.032457881867303 × 52 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 52 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.032457881867303 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifty-two feet per second is approximately thirty point eight zero nine knots:

52 ft/s ≅ 30.809 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three two times fifty-two feet per second.
