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 31.2 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 31.2 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
31.2 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 31.2 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 18.485494600448 kt
The final result is:
31.2 ft/s → 18.485494600448 kt
We conclude that 31.2 feet per second is equivalent to 18.485494600448 knots:
31.2 feet per second = 18.485494600448 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.054096469778838 × 31.2 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 31.2 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.054096469778838 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that thirty-one point two feet per second is approximately eighteen point four eight five knots:
31.2 ft/s ≅ 18.485 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero five four times thirty-one point two feet per second.
