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 7340 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 7340 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

7340 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 7340 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 12388.524351112 ft/s

The final result is:

7340 kt → 12388.524351112 ft/s

We conclude that 7340 knots is equivalent to 12388.524351112 feet per second:

7340 knots = 12388.524351112 feet per second

Alternative conversion
