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 542 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 542 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

542 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 542 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 321.12622030265 kt

The final result is:

542 ft/s → 321.12622030265 kt

We conclude that 542 feet per second is equivalent to 321.12622030265 knots:

542 feet per second = 321.12622030265 knots
