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 2945 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 2945 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

2945 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 2945 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4970.6000291587 ft/s

The final result is:

2945 kt → 4970.6000291587 ft/s

We conclude that 2945 knots is equivalent to 4970.6000291587 feet per second:

2945 knots = 4970.6000291587 feet per second

Alternative conversion
