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 5123 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5123 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

5123 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5123 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3035.2945140415 kt

The final result is:

5123 ft/s → 3035.2945140415 kt

We conclude that 5123 feet per second is equivalent to 3035.2945140415 knots:

5123 feet per second = 3035.2945140415 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00032945732131558 × 5123 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 5123 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00032945732131558 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five thousand one hundred twenty-three feet per second is approximately three thousand thirty-five point two nine five knots:

5123 ft/s ≅ 3035.295 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times five thousand one hundred twenty-three feet per second.
