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 852 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 852 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
852 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 852 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1438.013998249 ft/s
The final result is:
852 kt → 1438.013998249 ft/s
We conclude that 852 knots is equivalent to 1438.013998249 feet per second:
852 knots = 1438.013998249 feet per second
