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 843.5 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 843.5 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

843.5 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 843.5 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1423.6676144636 ft/s

The final result is:

843.5 kt → 1423.6676144636 ft/s

We conclude that 843.5 knots is equivalent to 1423.6676144636 feet per second:

843.5 knots = 1423.6676144636 feet per second

Alternative conversion
