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 1817 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 1817 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

1817 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1817 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3066.7505103502 ft/s

The final result is:

1817 kt → 3066.7505103502 ft/s

We conclude that 1817 knots is equivalent to 3066.7505103502 feet per second:

1817 knots = 3066.7505103502 feet per second

Alternative conversion
