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 740 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 740 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
740 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 740 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 1248.9792942538 ft/s
The final result is:
740 kt → 1248.9792942538 ft/s
We conclude that 740 knots is equivalent to 1248.9792942538 feet per second:
740 knots = 1248.9792942538 feet per second
