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 1082 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1082 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

1082 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1082 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1826.2102653819 ft/s

The final result is:

1082 kt → 1826.2102653819 ft/s

We conclude that 1082 knots is equivalent to 1826.2102653819 feet per second:

1082 knots = 1826.2102653819 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 0.00054758207143845 × 1082 knots.

Another way is saying that 1082 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00054758207143845 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 eighty-two knots is approximately one thousand eight hundred twenty-six point two one feet per second:

1082 kt ≅ 1826.21 ft/s

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