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 43.1 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 43.1 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

43.1 kt → V(ft/s)

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

V(ft/s) = 43.1 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V(ft/s) = 72.744604840999 ft/s

The final result is:

43.1 kt → 72.744604840999 ft/s

We conclude that 43.1 knots is equivalent to 72.744604840999 feet per second:

43.1 knots = 72.744604840999 feet per second
