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 4479 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4479 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

4479 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4479 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2653.7349460066 kt

The final result is:

4479 ft/s → 2653.7349460066 kt

We conclude that 4479 feet per second is equivalent to 2653.7349460066 knots:

4479 feet per second = 2653.7349460066 knots
