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 1475 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1475 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

1475 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1475 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2489.5195392221 ft/s

The final result is:

1475 kt → 2489.5195392221 ft/s

We conclude that 1475 knots is equivalent to 2489.5195392221 feet per second:

1475 knots = 2489.5195392221 feet per second
