Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to knots is 0.59248380129641, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.59248380129641 knots:

1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 1654 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1654 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

1654 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 1654 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 979.96820734426 kt

The final result is:

1654 ft/s → 979.96820734426 kt

We conclude that 1654 feet per second is equivalent to 979.96820734426 knots:

1654 feet per second = 979.96820734426 knots

Alternative conversion
