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 2520 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2520 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

2520 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2520 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1493.0591792669 kt

The final result is:

2520 ft/s → 1493.0591792669 kt

We conclude that 2520 feet per second is equivalent to 1493.0591792669 knots:

2520 feet per second = 1493.0591792669 knots

Alternative conversion
