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 778 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 778 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

778 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 778 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1313.1160688236 ft/s

The final result is:

778 kt → 1313.1160688236 ft/s

We conclude that 778 knots is equivalent to 1313.1160688236 feet per second:
