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 955 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 955 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

955 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 955 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1611.8584135302 ft/s

The final result is:

955 kt → 1611.8584135302 ft/s

We conclude that 955 knots is equivalent to 1611.8584135302 feet per second:

955 knots = 1611.8584135302 feet per second
