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 1688 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 1688 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
1688 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 1688 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 1000.1126565883 kt
The final result is:
1688 ft/s → 1000.1126565883 kt
We conclude that 1688 feet per second is equivalent to 1000.1126565883 knots:
1688 feet per second = 1000.1126565883 knots
