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 830 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 830 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

830 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 830 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1400.8821813928 ft/s

The final result is:

830 kt → 1400.8821813928 ft/s

We conclude that 830 knots is equivalent to 1400.8821813928 feet per second:

830 knots = 1400.8821813928 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 0.0007138359051764 × 830 knots.

Another way is saying that 830 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0007138359051764 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred thirty knots is approximately one thousand four hundred point eight eight two feet per second:

830 kt ≅ 1400.882 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times eight hundred thirty knots.
