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 855.1 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 855.1 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
855.1 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 855.1 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1443.246208806 ft/s
The final result is:
855.1 kt → 1443.246208806 ft/s
We conclude that 855.1 knots is equivalent to 1443.246208806 feet per second:
