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 734 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 734 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

734 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 734 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1238.8524351112 ft/s

The final result is:

734 kt → 1238.8524351112 ft/s

We conclude that 734 knots is equivalent to 1238.8524351112 feet per second:

734 knots = 1238.8524351112 feet per second

Alternative conversion
