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 510 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 510 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
510 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 510 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 860.78302712087 ft/s
The final result is:
510 kt → 860.78302712087 ft/s
We conclude that 510 knots is equivalent to 860.78302712087 feet per second:
510 knots = 860.78302712087 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 0.0011617329437184 × 510 knots.
Another way is saying that 510 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0011617329437184 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 ten knots is approximately eight hundred sixty point seven eight three feet per second:
510 kt ≅ 860.783 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times five hundred ten knots.
