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 2933 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2933 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

2933 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2933 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4950.3463108735 ft/s

The final result is:

2933 kt → 4950.3463108735 ft/s

We conclude that 2933 knots is equivalent to 4950.3463108735 feet per second:

2933 knots = 4950.3463108735 feet per second

Alternative conversion
