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 84.9 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 84.9 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
84.9 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 84.9 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 143.29505686777 ft/s
The final result is:
84.9 kt → 143.29505686777 ft/s
We conclude that 84.9 knots is equivalent to 143.29505686777 feet per second:
84.9 knots = 143.29505686777 feet per second
