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 168 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 168 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
168 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 168 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 283.55205599276 ft/s
The final result is:
168 kt → 283.55205599276 ft/s
We conclude that 168 knots is equivalent to 283.55205599276 feet per second:
168 knots = 283.55205599276 feet per second
