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 3009 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3009 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
3009 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 3009 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 5078.6198600131 ft/s
The final result is:
3009 kt → 5078.6198600131 ft/s
We conclude that 3009 knots is equivalent to 5078.6198600131 feet per second:
3009 knots = 5078.6198600131 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00019690388876584 × 3009 knots.
Another way is saying that 3009 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00019690388876584 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three thousand nine knots is approximately five thousand seventy-eight point six two feet per second:
3009 kt ≅ 5078.62 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times three thousand nine knots.
