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 1523 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1523 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

1523 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1523 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2570.5344123629 ft/s

The final result is:

1523 kt → 2570.5344123629 ft/s

We conclude that 1523 knots is equivalent to 2570.5344123629 feet per second:

1523 knots = 2570.5344123629 feet per second
