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 2424 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2424 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

2424 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2424 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1436.1807343425 kt

The final result is:

2424 ft/s → 1436.1807343425 kt

We conclude that 2424 feet per second is equivalent to 1436.1807343425 knots:

2424 feet per second = 1436.1807343425 knots

Alternative conversion
