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 1220 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1220 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
1220 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 1220 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 2059.1280256617 ft/s
The final result is:
1220 kt → 2059.1280256617 ft/s
We conclude that 1220 knots is equivalent to 2059.1280256617 feet per second:
1220 knots = 2059.1280256617 feet per second
