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 348 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 348 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

348 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 348 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 587.35783027071 ft/s

The final result is:

348 kt → 587.35783027071 ft/s

We conclude that 348 knots is equivalent to 587.35783027071 feet per second:

348 knots = 587.35783027071 feet per second

Alternative conversion
