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 5222 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5222 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

5222 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5222 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3093.9504103698 kt

The final result is:

5222 ft/s → 3093.9504103698 kt

We conclude that 5222 feet per second is equivalent to 3093.9504103698 knots:

5222 feet per second = 3093.9504103698 knots

Alternative conversion
