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 76.8 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 76.8 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
76.8 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 76.8 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 129.62379702526 ft/s
The final result is:
76.8 kt → 129.62379702526 ft/s
We conclude that 76.8 knots is equivalent to 129.62379702526 feet per second:
76.8 knots = 129.62379702526 feet per second
