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 3608 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3608 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

3608 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3608 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 6089.6179644159 ft/s

The final result is:

3608 kt → 6089.6179644159 ft/s

We conclude that 3608 knots is equivalent to 6089.6179644159 feet per second:

3608 knots = 6089.6179644159 feet per second
