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 902 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 902 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

902 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 902 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1522.404491104 ft/s

The final result is:

902 kt → 1522.404491104 ft/s

We conclude that 902 knots is equivalent to 1522.404491104 feet per second:

902 knots = 1522.404491104 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00065685565553926 × 902 knots.

Another way is saying that 902 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00065685565553926 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred two knots is approximately one thousand five hundred twenty-two point four zero four feet per second:

902 kt ≅ 1522.404 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times nine hundred two knots.
