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 2780 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2780 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
2780 ft/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 2780 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt
V(kt) = 1647.104967604 kt
The final result is:
2780 ft/s → 1647.104967604 kt
We conclude that 2780 feet per second is equivalent to 1647.104967604 knots:
2780 feet per second = 1647.104967604 knots
