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 82.9 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 82.9 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
82.9 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 82.9 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 139.91943715357 ft/s
The final result is:
82.9 kt → 139.91943715357 ft/s
We conclude that 82.9 knots is equivalent to 139.91943715357 feet per second:
82.9 knots = 139.91943715357 feet per second
