What is the Formula to convert Foot/second to Knot (UK)?

The formula to convert given speed from Foot/second to Knot (UK) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = Speed(Foot/second) × 1.9426025694 / 3.280839895

Substitute the given value of speed in foot/second, i.e., Speed(Foot/second) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the speed in knot (uk), i.e., Speed(Knot (UK)).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

A sprinter reaches a speed of 30 feet per second during a race.
Convert this speed from feet per second to Knot (UK).

Answer:

Given:

The speed in foot/second is:

Speed(Foot/second) = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from foot/second to knot (uk) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = Speed(Foot/second) × 1.9426025694 / 3.280839895

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Foot/second) = 30 in the above formula.

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 30 × 1.9426025694 / 3.280839895

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 17.7632

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 ft/s is equal to 17.7632 kt (UK).

The speed is 17.7632 kt (UK), in knot (uk).

2

A car accelerates to 50 feet per second.
Convert this speed from feet per second to Knot (UK).

Answer:

Given:

The speed in foot/second is:

Speed(Foot/second) = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from foot/second to knot (uk) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = Speed(Foot/second) × 1.9426025694 / 3.280839895

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Foot/second) = 50 in the above formula.

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 50 × 1.9426025694 / 3.280839895

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 29.6053

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 ft/s is equal to 29.6053 kt (UK).

The speed is 29.6053 kt (UK), in knot (uk).

Foot/second

The foot per second (ft/s) is a unit of speed commonly used in the United States to measure the velocity of objects, particularly in engineering and physics. It indicates how many feet are covered in one second and is often used in contexts such as projectile motion or fluid flow.

Knot (UK)

The knot (UK) is the British version of the knot, used similarly to the international knot to measure speed at sea or in the air. It represents one nautical mile per hour, and while the definition is consistent with the international version, it is sometimes distinguished in historical or traditional contexts.
