Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to knots is 0.59248380129641, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.59248380129641 knots:

1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 3864 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3864 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

3864 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 3864 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2289.3574082093 kt

The final result is:

3864 ft/s → 2289.3574082093 kt

We conclude that 3864 feet per second is equivalent to 2289.3574082093 knots:

3864 feet per second = 2289.3574082093 knots

Alternative conversion
