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 2160 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2160 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
2160 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 2160 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 1279.7650108002 kt
The final result is:
2160 ft/s → 1279.7650108002 kt
We conclude that 2160 feet per second is equivalent to 1279.7650108002 knots:
2160 feet per second = 1279.7650108002 knots
