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 556 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 556 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

556 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 556 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 329.4209935208 kt

The final result is:

556 ft/s → 329.4209935208 kt

We conclude that 556 feet per second is equivalent to 329.4209935208 knots:

556 feet per second = 329.4209935208 knots
