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 1155 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1155 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

1155 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1155 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1949.4203849502 ft/s

The final result is:

1155 kt → 1949.4203849502 ft/s

We conclude that 1155 knots is equivalent to 1949.4203849502 feet per second:

1155 knots = 1949.4203849502 feet per second

Alternative conversion
