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 964 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 964 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

964 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 964 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1627.0487022441 ft/s

The final result is:

964 kt → 1627.0487022441 ft/s

We conclude that 964 knots is equivalent to 1627.0487022441 feet per second:

964 knots = 1627.0487022441 feet per second

Alternative conversion
