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 1460 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1460 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
1460 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 1460 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 2464.2023913656 ft/s
The final result is:
1460 kt → 2464.2023913656 ft/s
We conclude that 1460 knots is equivalent to 2464.2023913656 feet per second:
