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 782 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 782 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

782 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 782 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1319.867308252 ft/s

The final result is:

782 kt → 1319.867308252 ft/s

We conclude that 782 knots is equivalent to 1319.867308252 feet per second:

782 knots = 1319.867308252 feet per second
