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 99 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 99 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
99 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 99 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 167.09317585287 ft/s
The final result is:
99 kt → 167.09317585287 ft/s
We conclude that 99 knots is equivalent to 167.09317585287 feet per second:
99 knots = 167.09317585287 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0059846848615799 × 99 knots.
Another way is saying that 99 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0059846848615799 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that ninety-nine knots is approximately one hundred sixty-seven point zero nine three feet per second:
99 kt ≅ 167.093 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero six times ninety-nine knots.
