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 1877 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1877 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

1877 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1877 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3168.0191017762 ft/s

The final result is:

1877 kt → 3168.0191017762 ft/s

We conclude that 1877 knots is equivalent to 3168.0191017762 feet per second:
