Converting from Knot (kn) to Seconds per foot (spf) in Speed

What is Knot (kn)

Knot (kn) is a unit of speed that is typically used in maritime and aviation contexts. One knot is equivalent to one nautical mile per hour.

What is Seconds per foot (spf)

Seconds per foot (spf) is a unit of speed that represents the time it takes for an object to move one foot in distance. It is commonly used in physics and engineering calculations.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between Knot (kn) and Seconds per foot (spf) can be done using the following formulas:

spf=kn×0.5924838

kn=spf×0.5924838

Examples

1. Converting 5 knots (kn) to seconds per foot (spf):

spf=5×0.5924838=2.962419

2. Converting 6 seconds per foot (spf) to knots (kn):

kn=6×0.5924838=3.5549028

3. Converting 9 knots (kn) to seconds per foot (spf):

spf=9×0.5924838=5.3315314

By using these conversion formulas, you can easily convert between Knot (kn) and Seconds per foot (spf) to meet your specific speed measurement needs.
