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 178 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 178 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
178 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 178 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 300.43015456375 ft/s
The final result is:
178 kt → 300.43015456375 ft/s
We conclude that 178 knots is equivalent to 300.43015456375 feet per second:
178 knots = 300.43015456375 feet per second
Alternative conversion
