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 3164 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3164 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

3164 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3164 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1874.6187473018 kt

The final result is:

3164 ft/s → 1874.6187473018 kt

We conclude that 3164 feet per second is equivalent to 1874.6187473018 knots:

3164 feet per second = 1874.6187473018 knots

Alternative conversion
