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 1782 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1782 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

1782 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1782 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3007.6771653517 ft/s

The final result is:

1782 kt → 3007.6771653517 ft/s

We conclude that 1782 knots is equivalent to 3007.6771653517 feet per second:

1782 knots = 3007.6771653517 feet per second
