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 785 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 785 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

785 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 785 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 465.09978401768 kt

The final result is:

785 ft/s → 465.09978401768 kt

We conclude that 785 feet per second is equivalent to 465.09978401768 knots:

785 feet per second = 465.09978401768 knots
