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 957 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 957 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

957 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 957 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1615.2340332444 ft/s

The final result is:

957 kt → 1615.2340332444 ft/s

We conclude that 957 knots is equivalent to 1615.2340332444 feet per second:

957 knots = 1615.2340332444 feet per second
