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 21.3 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 21.3 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
21.3 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 21.3 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 35.950349956224 ft/s
The final result is:
21.3 kt → 35.950349956224 ft/s
We conclude that 21.3 knots is equivalent to 35.950349956224 feet per second:
21.3 knots = 35.950349956224 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.027816140905935 × 21.3 knots.
Another way is saying that 21.3 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.027816140905935 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-one point three knots is approximately thirty-five point nine five feet per second:
21.3 kt ≅ 35.95 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two eight times twenty-one point three knots.
