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 2911 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2911 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

2911 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2911 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4913.2144940173 ft/s

The final result is:

2911 kt → 4913.2144940173 ft/s

We conclude that 2911 knots is equivalent to 4913.2144940173 feet per second:

2911 knots = 4913.2144940173 feet per second

Alternative conversion
