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 77.8 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 77.8 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
77.8 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 77.8 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 46.095239740861 kt
The final result is:
77.8 ft/s → 46.095239740861 kt
We conclude that 77.8 feet per second is equivalent to 46.095239740861 knots:
77.8 feet per second = 46.095239740861 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.021694214101539 × 77.8 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 77.8 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.021694214101539 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seventy-seven point eight feet per second is approximately forty-six point zero nine five knots:
77.8 ft/s ≅ 46.095 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero two two times seventy-seven point eight feet per second.
