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 1293 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1293 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

1293 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1293 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2182.33814523 ft/s

The final result is:

1293 kt → 2182.33814523 ft/s

We conclude that 1293 knots is equivalent to 2182.33814523 feet per second:

1293 knots = 2182.33814523 feet per second
