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 2824 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2824 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

2824 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2824 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4766.3750364497 ft/s

The final result is:

2824 kt → 4766.3750364497 ft/s

We conclude that 2824 knots is equivalent to 4766.3750364497 feet per second:

2824 knots = 4766.3750364497 feet per second
