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 3743 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3743 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

3743 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3743 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 6317.4722951243 ft/s

The final result is:

3743 kt → 6317.4722951243 ft/s

We conclude that 3743 knots is equivalent to 6317.4722951243 feet per second:

3743 knots = 6317.4722951243 feet per second
