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 655 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 655 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

655 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 655 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1105.5154564003 ft/s

The final result is:

655 kt → 1105.5154564003 ft/s

We conclude that 655 knots is equivalent to 1105.5154564003 feet per second:

655 knots = 1105.5154564003 feet per second

Alternative conversion
