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 1066 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1066 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

1066 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1066 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1799.2053076683 ft/s

The final result is:

1066 kt → 1799.2053076683 ft/s

We conclude that 1066 knots is equivalent to 1799.2053076683 feet per second:

1066 knots = 1799.2053076683 feet per second
