1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt
To convert 1008.5 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1008.5 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
1008.5 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 1008.5 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 597.51991360743 kt
The final result is:
1008.5 ft/s → 597.51991360743 kt
We conclude that 1008.5 feet per second is equivalent to 597.51991360743 knots:
1008.5 feet per second = 597.51991360743 knots
