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 21.1 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 21.1 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
21.1 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 21.1 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 35.612787984804 ft/s
The final result is:
21.1 kt → 35.612787984804 ft/s
We conclude that 21.1 knots is equivalent to 35.612787984804 feet per second:
21.1 knots = 35.612787984804 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 0.028079801009308 × 21.1 knots.
Another way is saying that 21.1 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.028079801009308 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twenty-one point one knots is approximately thirty-five point six one three feet per second:
21.1 kt ≅ 35.613 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two eight times twenty-one point one knots.
