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 870.1 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 870.1 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
870.1 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 870.1 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 515.520155508 kt
The final result is:
870.1 ft/s → 515.520155508 kt
We conclude that 870.1 feet per second is equivalent to 515.520155508 knots:
870.1 feet per second = 515.520155508 knots
