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 26.8 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 26.8 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
26.8 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 26.8 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 45.233304170273 ft/s
The final result is:
26.8 kt → 45.233304170273 ft/s
We conclude that 26.8 knots is equivalent to 45.233304170273 feet per second:
26.8 knots = 45.233304170273 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 0.022107604525985 × 26.8 knots.
Another way is saying that 26.8 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.022107604525985 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-six point eight knots is approximately forty-five point two three three feet per second:
26.8 kt ≅ 45.233 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two two times twenty-six point eight knots.
