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 2338 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2338 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

2338 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2338 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 3946.0994458992 ft/s

The final result is:

2338 kt → 3946.0994458992 ft/s

We conclude that 2338 knots is equivalent to 3946.0994458992 feet per second:

2338 knots = 3946.0994458992 feet per second
