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 3109 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3109 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

3109 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3109 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1842.0321382305 kt

The final result is:

3109 ft/s → 1842.0321382305 kt

We conclude that 3109 feet per second is equivalent to 1842.0321382305 knots:

3109 feet per second = 1842.0321382305 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.000542878693181 × 3109 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 3109 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.000542878693181 knots.

Approximate result

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

3109 ft/s ≅ 1842.032 kt

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