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 98.4 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 98.4 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
98.4 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 98.4 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 58.300406047567 kt
The final result is:
98.4 ft/s → 58.300406047567 kt
We conclude that 98.4 feet per second is equivalent to 58.300406047567 knots:
98.4 feet per second = 58.300406047567 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.017152539198168 × 98.4 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 98.4 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.017152539198168 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that ninety-eight point four feet per second is approximately fifty-eight point three knots:
98.4 ft/s ≅ 58.3 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one seven times ninety-eight point four feet per second.
