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 2700 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2700 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

2700 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2700 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1599.7062635003 kt

The final result is:

2700 ft/s → 1599.7062635003 kt

We conclude that 2700 feet per second is equivalent to 1599.7062635003 knots:

2700 feet per second = 1599.7062635003 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00062511476188879 × 2700 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 2700 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00062511476188879 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two thousand seven hundred feet per second is approximately one thousand five hundred ninety-nine point seven zero six knots:

2700 ft/s ≅ 1599.706 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand seven hundred feet per second.
