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 586 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 586 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

586 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 586 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 347.1955075597 kt

The final result is:

586 ft/s → 347.1955075597 kt

We conclude that 586 feet per second is equivalent to 347.1955075597 knots:
