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 720 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 720 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
720 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 720 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 426.58833693341 kt
The final result is:
720 ft/s → 426.58833693341 kt
We conclude that 720 feet per second is equivalent to 426.58833693341 knots:
720 feet per second = 426.58833693341 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.002344180357083 × 720 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 720 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.002344180357083 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred twenty feet per second is approximately four hundred twenty-six point five eight eight knots:
720 ft/s ≅ 426.588 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times seven hundred twenty feet per second.
