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 504 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 504 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

504 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 504 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 850.65616797827 ft/s

The final result is:

504 kt → 850.65616797827 ft/s

We conclude that 504 knots is equivalent to 850.65616797827 feet per second:

504 knots = 850.65616797827 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 0.0011755630978103 × 504 knots.

Another way is saying that 504 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0011755630978103 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred four knots is approximately eight hundred fifty point six five six feet per second:

504 kt ≅ 850.656 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times five hundred four knots.
