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 781 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 781 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

781 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 781 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1318.1794983949 ft/s

The final result is:

781 kt → 1318.1794983949 ft/s

We conclude that 781 knots is equivalent to 1318.1794983949 feet per second:

781 knots = 1318.1794983949 feet per second
