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 3031 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3031 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

3031 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3031 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 5115.7516768693 ft/s

The final result is:

3031 kt → 5115.7516768693 ft/s

We conclude that 3031 knots is equivalent to 5115.7516768693 feet per second:

3031 knots = 5115.7516768693 feet per second

Alternative conversion
