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 2460 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2460 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

2460 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2460 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4152.0122484654 ft/s

The final result is:

2460 kt → 4152.0122484654 ft/s

We conclude that 2460 knots is equivalent to 4152.0122484654 feet per second:

2460 knots = 4152.0122484654 feet per second

Alternative conversion
