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 520 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 520 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
520 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 520 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 877.66112569186 ft/s
The final result is:
520 kt → 877.66112569186 ft/s
We conclude that 520 knots is equivalent to 877.66112569186 feet per second:
520 knots = 877.66112569186 feet per second
Alternative conversion
