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 531 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 531 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
531 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 531 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 896.22703411996 ft/s
The final result is:
531 kt → 896.22703411996 ft/s
We conclude that 531 knots is equivalent to 896.22703411996 feet per second:
