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 2000 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2000 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

2000 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2000 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3375.6197141995 ft/s

The final result is:

2000 kt → 3375.6197141995 ft/s

We conclude that 2000 knots is equivalent to 3375.6197141995 feet per second:

2000 knots = 3375.6197141995 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0002962419006482 × 2000 knots.

Another way is saying that 2000 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0002962419006482 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two thousand knots is approximately three thousand three hundred seventy-five point six two feet per second:

2000 kt ≅ 3375.62 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times two thousand knots.
