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 1623 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1623 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

1623 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1623 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2739.3153980729 ft/s

The final result is:

1623 kt → 2739.3153980729 ft/s

We conclude that 1623 knots is equivalent to 2739.3153980729 feet per second:

1623 knots = 2739.3153980729 feet per second

Alternative conversion
