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 1089 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1089 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
1089 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 1089 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1838.0249343816 ft/s
The final result is:
1089 kt → 1838.0249343816 ft/s
We conclude that 1089 knots is equivalent to 1838.0249343816 feet per second:
1089 knots = 1838.0249343816 feet per second
