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 936 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 936 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

936 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 936 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1579.7900262454 ft/s

The final result is:

936 kt → 1579.7900262454 ft/s

We conclude that 936 knots is equivalent to 1579.7900262454 feet per second:

936 knots = 1579.7900262454 feet per second
