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 1503 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1503 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

1503 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1503 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2536.7782152209 ft/s

The final result is:

1503 kt → 2536.7782152209 ft/s

We conclude that 1503 knots is equivalent to 2536.7782152209 feet per second:

1503 knots = 2536.7782152209 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 0.00039420079926574 × 1503 knots.

Another way is saying that 1503 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00039420079926574 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 three knots is approximately two thousand five hundred thirty-six point seven seven eight feet per second:

1503 kt ≅ 2536.778 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times one thousand five hundred three knots.
