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 1174 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1174 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

1174 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1174 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1981.4887722351 ft/s

The final result is:

1174 kt → 1981.4887722351 ft/s

We conclude that 1174 knots is equivalent to 1981.4887722351 feet per second:

1174 knots = 1981.4887722351 feet per second
