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 963 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 963 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

963 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 963 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1625.360892387 ft/s

The final result is:

963 kt → 1625.360892387 ft/s

We conclude that 963 knots is equivalent to 1625.360892387 feet per second:

963 knots = 1625.360892387 feet per second

Alternative conversion
