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 83 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 83 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
83 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 83 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 49.176155507602 kt
The final result is:
83 ft/s → 49.176155507602 kt
We conclude that 83 feet per second is equivalent to 49.176155507602 knots:
83 feet per second = 49.176155507602 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.020335058519274 × 83 feet per second.
Another way is saying that 83 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.020335058519274 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighty-three feet per second is approximately forty-nine point one seven six knots:
83 ft/s ≅ 49.176 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero two times eighty-three feet per second.
