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 4716 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4716 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

4716 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4716 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2794.1536069139 kt

The final result is:

4716 ft/s → 2794.1536069139 kt

We conclude that 4716 feet per second is equivalent to 2794.1536069139 knots:

4716 feet per second = 2794.1536069139 knots

Alternative conversion
