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 706 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 706 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

706 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 706 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1191.5937591124 ft/s

The final result is:

706 kt → 1191.5937591124 ft/s

We conclude that 706 knots is equivalent to 1191.5937591124 feet per second:

706 knots = 1191.5937591124 feet per second

Alternative conversion
