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 2560 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2560 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

2560 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2560 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4320.7932341753 ft/s

The final result is:

2560 kt → 4320.7932341753 ft/s

We conclude that 2560 knots is equivalent to 4320.7932341753 feet per second:

2560 knots = 4320.7932341753 feet per second

Alternative conversion
