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 867 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 867 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

867 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 867 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1463.3311461055 ft/s

The final result is:

867 kt → 1463.3311461055 ft/s

We conclude that 867 knots is equivalent to 1463.3311461055 feet per second:

867 knots = 1463.3311461055 feet per second
