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 97.7 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 97.7 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
97.7 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 97.7 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 164.89902303864 ft/s
The final result is:
97.7 kt → 164.89902303864 ft/s
We conclude that 97.7 knots is equivalent to 164.89902303864 feet per second:
