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 273 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 273 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
273 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 273 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 460.77209098823 ft/s
The final result is:
273 kt → 460.77209098823 ft/s
We conclude that 273 knots is equivalent to 460.77209098823 feet per second:
273 knots = 460.77209098823 feet per second
