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 299 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 299 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

299 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 299 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 504.65514727282 ft/s

The final result is:

299 kt → 504.65514727282 ft/s

We conclude that 299 knots is equivalent to 504.65514727282 feet per second:

299 knots = 504.65514727282 feet per second

Alternative conversion
