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 629 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 629 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

629 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 629 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1061.6324001157 ft/s

The final result is:

629 kt → 1061.6324001157 ft/s

We conclude that 629 knots is equivalent to 1061.6324001157 feet per second:

629 knots = 1061.6324001157 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 0.00094194563004198 × 629 knots.

Another way is saying that 629 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00094194563004198 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 twenty-nine knots is approximately one thousand sixty-one point six three two feet per second:

629 kt ≅ 1061.632 ft/s

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