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 2400 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2400 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

2400 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2400 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4050.7436570394 ft/s

The final result is:

2400 kt → 4050.7436570394 ft/s

We conclude that 2400 knots is equivalent to 4050.7436570394 feet per second:

2400 knots = 4050.7436570394 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00024686825054017 × 2400 knots.

Another way is saying that 2400 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00024686825054017 feet per second.

Approximate result

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

2400 kt ≅ 4050.744 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times two thousand four hundred knots.
