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 1151 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1151 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

1151 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1151 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1942.6691455218 ft/s

The final result is:

1151 kt → 1942.6691455218 ft/s

We conclude that 1151 knots is equivalent to 1942.6691455218 feet per second:

1151 knots = 1942.6691455218 feet per second

Alternative conversion
