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 616 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 616 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

616 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 616 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1039.6908719734 ft/s

The final result is:

616 kt → 1039.6908719734 ft/s

We conclude that 616 knots is equivalent to 1039.6908719734 feet per second:

616 knots = 1039.6908719734 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 0.00096182435275391 × 616 knots.

Another way is saying that 616 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00096182435275391 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 sixteen knots is approximately one thousand thirty-nine point six nine one feet per second:

616 kt ≅ 1039.691 ft/s

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