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 600 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 600 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

600 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 600 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1012.6859142598 ft/s

The final result is:

600 kt → 1012.6859142598 ft/s

We conclude that 600 knots is equivalent to 1012.6859142598 feet per second:

600 knots = 1012.6859142598 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 0.00098747300216068 × 600 knots.

Another way is saying that 600 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00098747300216068 feet per second.

Approximate result

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

600 kt ≅ 1012.686 ft/s

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