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 3946 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 3946 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

3946 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3946 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2337.9410799156 kt

The final result is:

3946 ft/s → 2337.9410799156 kt

We conclude that 3946 feet per second is equivalent to 2337.9410799156 knots:

3946 feet per second = 2337.9410799156 knots

Alternative conversion
