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 56 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 56 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
56 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 56 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 33.179092872599 kt
The final result is:
56 ft/s → 33.179092872599 kt
We conclude that 56 feet per second is equivalent to 33.179092872599 knots:
56 feet per second = 33.179092872599 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.030139461733924 × 56 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 56 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.030139461733924 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifty-six feet per second is approximately thirty-three point one seven nine knots:
56 ft/s ≅ 33.179 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three times fifty-six feet per second.
