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 890 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 890 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

890 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 890 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 527.3105831538 kt

The final result is:

890 ft/s → 527.3105831538 kt

We conclude that 890 feet per second is equivalent to 527.3105831538 knots:

890 feet per second = 527.3105831538 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.001896415569775 × 890 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 890 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.001896415569775 knots.

Approximate result

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

890 ft/s ≅ 527.311 kt

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