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 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 43 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 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 43 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 72.575823855289 ft/s
The final result is:
43 kt → 72.575823855289 ft/s
We conclude that 43 knots is equivalent to 72.575823855289 feet per second:
43 knots = 72.575823855289 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 0.013778693053405 × 43 knots.
Another way is saying that 43 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.013778693053405 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty-three knots is approximately seventy-two point five seven six feet per second:
43 kt ≅ 72.576 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero one four times forty-three knots.
