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 1679 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1679 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

1679 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1679 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 994.78030237667 kt

The final result is:

1679 ft/s → 994.78030237667 kt

We conclude that 1679 feet per second is equivalent to 994.78030237667 knots:

1679 feet per second = 994.78030237667 knots
