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 1317 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1317 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

1317 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1317 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2222.8455818004 ft/s

The final result is:

1317 kt → 2222.8455818004 ft/s

We conclude that 1317 knots is equivalent to 2222.8455818004 feet per second:

1317 knots = 2222.8455818004 feet per second

Alternative conversion
