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 3009 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3009 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

3009 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 3009 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 1782.7837581009 kt

The final result is:

3009 ft/s → 1782.7837581009 kt

We conclude that 3009 feet per second is equivalent to 1782.7837581009 knots:

3009 feet per second = 1782.7837581009 knots
