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 778 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 778 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

778 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 778 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 460.95239740861 kt

The final result is:

778 ft/s → 460.95239740861 kt

We conclude that 778 feet per second is equivalent to 460.95239740861 knots:

778 feet per second = 460.95239740861 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0021694214101539 × 778 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 778 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0021694214101539 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred seventy-eight feet per second is approximately four hundred sixty point nine five two knots:

778 ft/s ≅ 460.952 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times seven hundred seventy-eight feet per second.
