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 579 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 579 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

579 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 579 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 343.04812095062 kt

The final result is:

579 ft/s → 343.04812095062 kt

We conclude that 579 feet per second is equivalent to 343.04812095062 knots:
