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 1644 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1644 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

1644 kt → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 1644 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2774.759405072 ft/s

The final result is:

1644 kt → 2774.759405072 ft/s

We conclude that 1644 knots is equivalent to 2774.759405072 feet per second:

1644 knots = 2774.759405072 feet per second
