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 737 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 737 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

737 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 737 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1243.9158646825 ft/s

The final result is:

737 kt → 1243.9158646825 ft/s

We conclude that 737 knots is equivalent to 1243.9158646825 feet per second:

737 knots = 1243.9158646825 feet per second
