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 1500 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1500 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
1500 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 1500 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 2531.7147856496 ft/s
The final result is:
1500 kt → 2531.7147856496 ft/s
We conclude that 1500 knots is equivalent to 2531.7147856496 feet per second:
1500 knots = 2531.7147856496 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00039498920086427 × 1500 knots.
Another way is saying that 1500 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00039498920086427 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand five hundred knots is approximately two thousand five hundred thirty-one point seven one five feet per second:
1500 kt ≅ 2531.715 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times one thousand five hundred knots.
