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 3040 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3040 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
3040 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 3040 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 5130.9419655832 ft/s
The final result is:
3040 kt → 5130.9419655832 ft/s
We conclude that 3040 knots is equivalent to 5130.9419655832 feet per second:
3040 knots = 5130.9419655832 feet per second
