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 25 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 25 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

25 kt → V(ft/s)

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

V(ft/s) = 25 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V(ft/s) = 42.195246427493 ft/s

The final result is:

25 kt → 42.195246427493 ft/s

We conclude that 25 knots is equivalent to 42.195246427493 feet per second:

25 knots = 42.195246427493 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 0.023699352051856 × 25 knots.

Another way is saying that 25 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.023699352051856 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-five knots is approximately forty-two point one nine five feet per second:

25 kt ≅ 42.195 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two four times twenty-five knots.
