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 2690 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2690 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

2690 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2690 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1593.7814254873 kt

The final result is:

2690 ft/s → 1593.7814254873 kt

We conclude that 2690 feet per second is equivalent to 1593.7814254873 knots:
