Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:
1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s
To convert 1020 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1020 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s
1020 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 1020 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1721.5660542417 ft/s
The final result is:
1020 kt → 1721.5660542417 ft/s
We conclude that 1020 knots is equivalent to 1721.5660542417 feet per second:
1020 knots = 1721.5660542417 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00058086647185922 × 1020 knots.
Another way is saying that 1020 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00058086647185922 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand twenty knots is approximately one thousand seven hundred twenty-one point five six six feet per second:
1020 kt ≅ 1721.566 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand twenty knots.
