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 722 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 722 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

722 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 722 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1218.598716826 ft/s

The final result is:

722 kt → 1218.598716826 ft/s

We conclude that 722 knots is equivalent to 1218.598716826 feet per second:

722 knots = 1218.598716826 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 0.00082061468323602 × 722 knots.

Another way is saying that 722 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00082061468323602 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred twenty-two knots is approximately one thousand two hundred eighteen point five nine nine feet per second:

722 kt ≅ 1218.599 ft/s

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