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 3011 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3011 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

3011 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3011 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1783.9687257035 kt

The final result is:

3011 ft/s → 1783.9687257035 kt

We conclude that 3011 feet per second is equivalent to 1783.9687257035 knots:

3011 feet per second = 1783.9687257035 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00056054794324136 × 3011 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 3011 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00056054794324136 knots.

Approximate result

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

3011 ft/s ≅ 1783.969 kt

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