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 939 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 939 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
939 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 939 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1584.8534558167 ft/s
The final result is:
939 kt → 1584.8534558167 ft/s
We conclude that 939 knots is equivalent to 1584.8534558167 feet per second:
