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 975 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 975 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

975 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 975 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 577.671706264 kt

The final result is:

975 ft/s → 577.671706264 kt

We conclude that 975 feet per second is equivalent to 577.671706264 knots:

975 feet per second = 577.671706264 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0017310870329228 × 975 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 975 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0017310870329228 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred seventy-five feet per second is approximately five hundred seventy-seven point six seven two knots:

975 ft/s ≅ 577.672 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred seventy-five feet per second.
