Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:
1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s
To convert 29.8 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 29.8 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s
29.8 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 29.8 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 50.296733741572 ft/s
The final result is:
29.8 kt → 50.296733741572 ft/s
We conclude that 29.8 knots is equivalent to 50.296733741572 feet per second:
29.8 knots = 50.296733741572 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.019882006754913 × 29.8 knots.
Another way is saying that 29.8 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.019882006754913 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-nine point eight knots is approximately fifty point two nine seven feet per second:
29.8 kt ≅ 50.297 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two times twenty-nine point eight knots.
