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 4206 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4206 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

4206 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4206 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2491.9868682527 kt

The final result is:

4206 ft/s → 2491.9868682527 kt

We conclude that 4206 feet per second is equivalent to 2491.9868682527 knots:

4206 feet per second = 2491.9868682527 knots

Alternative conversion
