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 2449 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2449 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

2449 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2449 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4133.4463400373 ft/s

The final result is:

2449 kt → 4133.4463400373 ft/s

We conclude that 2449 knots is equivalent to 4133.4463400373 feet per second:

2449 knots = 4133.4463400373 feet per second

Alternative conversion
