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 4916 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4916 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

4916 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4916 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2912.6503671731 kt

The final result is:

4916 ft/s → 2912.6503671731 kt

We conclude that 4916 feet per second is equivalent to 2912.6503671731 knots:

4916 feet per second = 2912.6503671731 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00034332991397472 × 4916 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 4916 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00034332991397472 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four thousand nine hundred sixteen feet per second is approximately two thousand nine hundred twelve point six five knots:

4916 ft/s ≅ 2912.65 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times four thousand nine hundred sixteen feet per second.
