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 1000.5 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1000.5 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
1000.5 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 1000.5 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1688.6537620283 ft/s
The final result is:
1000.5 kt → 1688.6537620283 ft/s
We conclude that 1000.5 knots is equivalent to 1688.6537620283 feet per second:
1000.5 knots = 1688.6537620283 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 0.00059218770744269 × 1000.5 knots.
Another way is saying that 1000.5 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00059218770744269 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand point five knots is approximately one thousand six hundred eighty-eight point six five four feet per second:
1000.5 kt ≅ 1688.654 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand point five knots.
