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 83.9 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 83.9 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
83.9 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 83.9 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 49.709390928769 kt
The final result is:
83.9 ft/s → 49.709390928769 kt
We conclude that 83.9 feet per second is equivalent to 49.709390928769 knots:
83.9 feet per second = 49.709390928769 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.020116923207387 × 83.9 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 83.9 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.020116923207387 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighty-three point nine feet per second is approximately forty-nine point seven zero nine knots:
83.9 ft/s ≅ 49.709 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero two times eighty-three point nine feet per second.
