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 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 82 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 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 82 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 138.40040828218 ft/s
The final result is:
82 kt → 138.40040828218 ft/s
We conclude that 82 knots is equivalent to 138.40040828218 feet per second:
82 knots = 138.40040828218 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 0.0072254122109318 × 82 knots.
Another way is saying that 82 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0072254122109318 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighty-two knots is approximately one hundred thirty-eight point four feet per second:
82 kt ≅ 138.4 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero seven times eighty-two knots.
