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 55.8 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 55.8 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
55.8 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 55.8 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 33.06059611234 kt
The final result is:
55.8 ft/s → 33.06059611234 kt
We conclude that 55.8 feet per second is equivalent to 33.06059611234 knots:
55.8 feet per second = 33.06059611234 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.03024748847849 × 55.8 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 55.8 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.03024748847849 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifty-five point eight feet per second is approximately thirty-three point zero six one knots:
55.8 ft/s ≅ 33.061 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three times fifty-five point eight feet per second.
