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 1680 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1680 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

1680 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1680 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 995.37278617797 kt

The final result is:

1680 ft/s → 995.37278617797 kt

We conclude that 1680 feet per second is equivalent to 995.37278617797 knots:

1680 feet per second = 995.37278617797 knots

Alternative conversion
