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 868 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 868 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
868 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 868 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 514.27593952528 kt
The final result is:
868 ft/s → 514.27593952528 kt
We conclude that 868 feet per second is equivalent to 514.27593952528 knots:
868 feet per second = 514.27593952528 knots
Alternative conversion
