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 849 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 849 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
849 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 849 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 503.01874730065 kt
The final result is:
849 ft/s → 503.01874730065 kt
We conclude that 849 feet per second is equivalent to 503.01874730065 knots:
849 feet per second = 503.01874730065 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0019879974759714 × 849 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 849 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0019879974759714 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred forty-nine feet per second is approximately five hundred three point zero one nine knots:
849 ft/s ≅ 503.019 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times eight hundred forty-nine feet per second.
