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 1274 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1274 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

1274 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1274 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2150.2697579451 ft/s

The final result is:

1274 kt → 2150.2697579451 ft/s

We conclude that 1274 knots is equivalent to 2150.2697579451 feet per second:

1274 knots = 2150.2697579451 feet per second

Alternative conversion
