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 4701 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4701 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

4701 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4701 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2785.2663498944 kt

The final result is:

4701 ft/s → 2785.2663498944 kt

We conclude that 4701 feet per second is equivalent to 2785.2663498944 knots:

4701 feet per second = 2785.2663498944 knots

Alternative conversion
