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 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 26 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 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 26 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 43.883056284593 ft/s
The final result is:
26 kt → 43.883056284593 ft/s
We conclude that 26 knots is equivalent to 43.883056284593 feet per second:
26 knots = 43.883056284593 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 0.0227878385114 × 26 knots.
Another way is saying that 26 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0227878385114 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 knots is approximately forty-three point eight eight three feet per second:
26 kt ≅ 43.883 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two three times twenty-six knots.
