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 3011 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3011 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

3011 kt → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 3011 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 5081.9954797273 ft/s

The final result is:

3011 kt → 5081.9954797273 ft/s

We conclude that 3011 knots is equivalent to 5081.9954797273 feet per second:

3011 knots = 5081.9954797273 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 0.00019677309906888 × 3011 knots.

Another way is saying that 3011 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00019677309906888 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 eleven knots is approximately five thousand eighty-one point nine nine five feet per second:

3011 kt ≅ 5081.995 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times three thousand eleven knots.
