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 2951 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2951 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

2951 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 2951 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1748.4196976257 kt

The final result is:

2951 ft/s → 1748.4196976257 kt

We conclude that 2951 feet per second is equivalent to 1748.4196976257 knots:

2951 feet per second = 1748.4196976257 knots
