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 2311 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2311 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

2311 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2311 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3900.5285797575 ft/s

The final result is:

2311 kt → 3900.5285797575 ft/s

We conclude that 2311 knots is equivalent to 3900.5285797575 feet per second:

2311 knots = 3900.5285797575 feet per second

Alternative conversion
