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 3237 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3237 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

3237 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3237 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1917.8700647965 kt

The final result is:

3237 ft/s → 1917.8700647965 kt

We conclude that 3237 feet per second is equivalent to 1917.8700647965 knots:

3237 feet per second = 1917.8700647965 knots

Alternative conversion
