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 1045 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1045 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

1045 kt → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 1045 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1763.7613006692 ft/s

The final result is:

1045 kt → 1763.7613006692 ft/s

We conclude that 1045 knots is equivalent to 1763.7613006692 feet per second:

1045 knots = 1763.7613006692 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 0.00056697014478125 × 1045 knots.

Another way is saying that 1045 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00056697014478125 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 forty-five knots is approximately one thousand seven hundred sixty-three point seven six one feet per second:

1045 kt ≅ 1763.761 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand forty-five knots.
