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 3404 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3404 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

3404 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3404 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 5745.3047535675 ft/s

The final result is:

3404 kt → 5745.3047535675 ft/s

We conclude that 3404 knots is equivalent to 5745.3047535675 feet per second:

3404 knots = 5745.3047535675 feet per second

Alternative conversion
