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 1276 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1276 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

1276 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1276 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2153.6453776593 ft/s

The final result is:

1276 kt → 2153.6453776593 ft/s

We conclude that 1276 knots is equivalent to 2153.6453776593 feet per second:

1276 knots = 2153.6453776593 feet per second
