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 834 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 834 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

834 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 834 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 494.1314902812 kt

The final result is:

834 ft/s → 494.1314902812 kt

We conclude that 834 feet per second is equivalent to 494.1314902812 knots:

834 feet per second = 494.1314902812 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0020237528262587 × 834 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 834 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0020237528262587 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred thirty-four feet per second is approximately four hundred ninety-four point one three one knots:

834 ft/s ≅ 494.131 kt

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