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 896 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 896 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

896 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 896 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 530.86548596158 kt

The final result is:

896 ft/s → 530.86548596158 kt

We conclude that 896 feet per second is equivalent to 530.86548596158 knots:
