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 2482 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2482 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

2482 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2482 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4189.1440653215 ft/s

The final result is:

2482 kt → 4189.1440653215 ft/s

We conclude that 2482 knots is equivalent to 4189.1440653215 feet per second:
