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 1741 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1741 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

1741 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1741 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 2938.4769612106 ft/s

The final result is:

1741 kt → 2938.4769612106 ft/s

We conclude that 1741 knots is equivalent to 2938.4769612106 feet per second:

1741 knots = 2938.4769612106 feet per second

Alternative conversion
