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 5077 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5077 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

5077 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5077 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3008.0402591819 kt

The final result is:

5077 ft/s → 3008.0402591819 kt

We conclude that 5077 feet per second is equivalent to 3008.0402591819 knots:

5077 feet per second = 3008.0402591819 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00033244235908996 × 5077 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 5077 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00033244235908996 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five thousand seventy-seven feet per second is approximately three thousand eight point zero four knots:

5077 ft/s ≅ 3008.04 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times five thousand seventy-seven feet per second.
