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 4689 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4689 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

4689 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4689 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2778.1565442789 kt

The final result is:

4689 ft/s → 2778.1565442789 kt

We conclude that 4689 feet per second is equivalent to 2778.1565442789 knots:

4689 feet per second = 2778.1565442789 knots
