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 659 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 659 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
659 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 659 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1112.2666958287 ft/s
The final result is:
659 kt → 1112.2666958287 ft/s
We conclude that 659 knots is equivalent to 1112.2666958287 feet per second:
