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 252.1 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 252.1 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
252.1 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 252.1 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 425.49686497484 ft/s
The final result is:
252.1 kt → 425.49686497484 ft/s
We conclude that 252.1 knots is equivalent to 425.49686497484 feet per second:
252.1 knots = 425.49686497484 feet per second
Alternative conversion
