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 2162 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2162 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

2162 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2162 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3649.0449110496 ft/s

The final result is:

2162 kt → 3649.0449110496 ft/s

We conclude that 2162 knots is equivalent to 3649.0449110496 feet per second:

2162 knots = 3649.0449110496 feet per second

Alternative conversion
