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 686.4 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 686.4 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
686.4 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 686.4 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1158.5126859133 ft/s
The final result is:
686.4 kt → 1158.5126859133 ft/s
We conclude that 686.4 knots is equivalent to 1158.5126859133 feet per second:
686.4 knots = 1158.5126859133 feet per second
