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 59 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 59 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
59 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 59 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 34.956544276488 kt
The final result is:
59 ft/s → 34.956544276488 kt
We conclude that 59 feet per second is equivalent to 34.956544276488 knots:
59 feet per second = 34.956544276488 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.028606946730504 × 59 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 59 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.028606946730504 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that fifty-nine feet per second is approximately thirty-four point nine five seven knots:
59 ft/s ≅ 34.957 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero two nine times fifty-nine feet per second.
