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 2389 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2389 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

2389 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 2389 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1415.4438012971 kt

The final result is:

2389 ft/s → 1415.4438012971 kt

We conclude that 2389 feet per second is equivalent to 1415.4438012971 knots:

2389 feet per second = 1415.4438012971 knots
