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 996 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 996 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
996 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 996 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 590.11386609122 kt
The final result is:
996 ft/s → 590.11386609122 kt
We conclude that 996 feet per second is equivalent to 590.11386609122 knots:
996 feet per second = 590.11386609122 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0016945882099395 × 996 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 996 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0016945882099395 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred ninety-six feet per second is approximately five hundred ninety point one one four knots:
996 ft/s ≅ 590.114 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred ninety-six feet per second.
