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 521.9 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 521.9 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

521.9 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 521.9 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 880.86796442035 ft/s

The final result is:

521.9 kt → 880.86796442035 ft/s

We conclude that 521.9 knots is equivalent to 880.86796442035 feet per second:

521.9 knots = 880.86796442035 feet per second
