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 2400 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2400 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

2400 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2400 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1421.9611231114 kt

The final result is:

2400 ft/s → 1421.9611231114 kt

We conclude that 2400 feet per second is equivalent to 1421.9611231114 knots:

2400 feet per second = 1421.9611231114 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00070325410712489 × 2400 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 2400 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00070325410712489 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two thousand four hundred feet per second is approximately one thousand four hundred twenty-one point nine six one knots:

2400 ft/s ≅ 1421.961 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand four hundred feet per second.
