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 5204 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5204 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

5204 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5204 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3083.2857019465 kt

The final result is:

5204 ft/s → 3083.2857019465 kt

We conclude that 5204 feet per second is equivalent to 3083.2857019465 knots:

5204 feet per second = 3083.2857019465 knots

Alternative conversion
