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 80 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 80 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
80 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 80 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 135.02478856798 ft/s
The final result is:
80 kt → 135.02478856798 ft/s
We conclude that 80 knots is equivalent to 135.02478856798 feet per second:
80 knots = 135.02478856798 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0074060475162051 × 80 knots.
Another way is saying that 80 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0074060475162051 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighty knots is approximately one hundred thirty-five point zero two five feet per second:
80 kt ≅ 135.025 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero seven times eighty knots.
