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 893 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 893 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

893 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 893 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 529.08803455769 kt

The final result is:

893 ft/s → 529.08803455769 kt

We conclude that 893 feet per second is equivalent to 529.08803455769 knots:

893 feet per second = 529.08803455769 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0018900446328105 × 893 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 893 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0018900446328105 knots.

Approximate result

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

893 ft/s ≅ 529.088 kt

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