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 4761 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4761 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

4761 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4761 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2820.8153779722 kt

The final result is:

4761 ft/s → 2820.8153779722 kt

We conclude that 4761 feet per second is equivalent to 2820.8153779722 knots:

4761 feet per second = 2820.8153779722 knots

Alternative conversion
