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 597 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 597 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

597 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 597 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 353.71282937396 kt

The final result is:

597 ft/s → 353.71282937396 kt

We conclude that 597 feet per second is equivalent to 353.71282937396 knots:

597 feet per second = 353.71282937396 knots

Alternative conversion
