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 642 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 642 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
642 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 642 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1083.573928258 ft/s
The final result is:
642 kt → 1083.573928258 ft/s
We conclude that 642 knots is equivalent to 1083.573928258 feet per second:
642 knots = 1083.573928258 feet per second
Alternative conversion
