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 4227 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4227 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

4227 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4227 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2504.4290280799 kt

The final result is:

4227 ft/s → 2504.4290280799 kt

We conclude that 4227 feet per second is equivalent to 2504.4290280799 knots:

4227 feet per second = 2504.4290280799 knots

Alternative conversion
