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 2388 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2388 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

2388 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2388 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4030.4899387542 ft/s

The final result is:

2388 kt → 4030.4899387542 ft/s

We conclude that 2388 knots is equivalent to 4030.4899387542 feet per second:

2388 knots = 4030.4899387542 feet per second
