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 3052 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3052 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

3052 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3052 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 5151.1956838684 ft/s

The final result is:

3052 kt → 5151.1956838684 ft/s

We conclude that 3052 knots is equivalent to 5151.1956838684 feet per second:

3052 knots = 5151.1956838684 feet per second
