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 88.5 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 88.5 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

88.5 kt → V(ft/s)

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

V(ft/s) = 88.5 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V(ft/s) = 149.37117235333 ft/s

The final result is:

88.5 kt → 149.37117235333 ft/s

We conclude that 88.5 knots is equivalent to 149.37117235333 feet per second:
