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 3148 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3148 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

3148 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3148 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1865.1390064811 kt

The final result is:

3148 ft/s → 1865.1390064811 kt

We conclude that 3148 feet per second is equivalent to 1865.1390064811 knots:

3148 feet per second = 1865.1390064811 knots

Alternative conversion
