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 379.2 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 379.2 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

379.2 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 379.2 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 640.01749781222 ft/s

The final result is:

379.2 kt → 640.01749781222 ft/s

We conclude that 379.2 knots is equivalent to 640.01749781222 feet per second:

379.2 knots = 640.01749781222 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 0.0015624572818998 × 379.2 knots.

Another way is saying that 379.2 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0015624572818998 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred seventy-nine point two knots is approximately six hundred forty point zero one seven feet per second:

379.2 kt ≅ 640.017 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times three hundred seventy-nine point two knots.
