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 42.1 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 42.1 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
42.1 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 42.1 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 24.943568034579 kt
The final result is:
42.1 ft/s → 24.943568034579 kt
We conclude that 42.1 feet per second is equivalent to 24.943568034579 knots:
42.1 feet per second = 24.943568034579 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.040090495418046 × 42.1 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 42.1 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.040090495418046 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty-two point one feet per second is approximately twenty-four point nine four four knots:
42.1 ft/s ≅ 24.944 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero four times forty-two point one feet per second.
