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 5244 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5244 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

5244 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5244 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3106.9850539984 kt

The final result is:

5244 ft/s → 3106.9850539984 kt

We conclude that 5244 feet per second is equivalent to 3106.9850539984 knots:

5244 feet per second = 3106.9850539984 knots

Alternative conversion
