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 637 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 637 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

637 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 637 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1075.1348789725 ft/s

The final result is:

637 kt → 1075.1348789725 ft/s

We conclude that 637 knots is equivalent to 1075.1348789725 feet per second:

637 knots = 1075.1348789725 feet per second
