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 794 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 794 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

794 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 794 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 470.43213822935 kt

The final result is:

794 ft/s → 470.43213822935 kt

We conclude that 794 feet per second is equivalent to 470.43213822935 knots:

794 feet per second = 470.43213822935 knots

Alternative conversion
