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 32.1 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 32.1 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

32.1 kt → V(ft/s)

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

V(ft/s) = 32.1 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V(ft/s) = 54.178696412902 ft/s

The final result is:

32.1 kt → 54.178696412902 ft/s

We conclude that 32.1 knots is equivalent to 54.178696412902 feet per second:

32.1 knots = 54.178696412902 feet per second

Alternative conversion
