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 173.6 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 173.6 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
173.6 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 173.6 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 293.00379119251 ft/s
The final result is:
173.6 kt → 293.00379119251 ft/s
We conclude that 173.6 knots is equivalent to 293.00379119251 feet per second:
173.6 knots = 293.00379119251 feet per second
