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 394 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 394 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

394 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 394 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 233.43861771078 kt

The final result is:

394 ft/s → 233.43861771078 kt

We conclude that 394 feet per second is equivalent to 233.43861771078 knots:

394 feet per second = 233.43861771078 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0042837813631973 × 394 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 394 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0042837813631973 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred ninety-four feet per second is approximately two hundred thirty-three point four three nine knots:

394 ft/s ≅ 233.439 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times three hundred ninety-four feet per second.
