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 147 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 147 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
147 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 147 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 87.095118790572 kt
The final result is:
147 ft/s → 87.095118790572 kt
We conclude that 147 feet per second is equivalent to 87.095118790572 knots:
147 feet per second = 87.095118790572 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.011481699708161 × 147 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 147 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.011481699708161 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred forty-seven feet per second is approximately eighty-seven point zero nine five knots:
147 ft/s ≅ 87.095 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one one times one hundred forty-seven feet per second.
