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 3008 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3008 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

3008 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3008 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1782.1912742996 kt

The final result is:

3008 ft/s → 1782.1912742996 kt

We conclude that 3008 feet per second is equivalent to 1782.1912742996 knots:

3008 feet per second = 1782.1912742996 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0005611070003656 × 3008 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 3008 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0005611070003656 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three thousand eight feet per second is approximately one thousand seven hundred eighty-two point one nine one knots:

3008 ft/s ≅ 1782.191 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times three thousand eight feet per second.
