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 5268 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5268 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

5268 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5268 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3121.2046652295 kt

The final result is:

5268 ft/s → 3121.2046652295 kt

We conclude that 5268 feet per second is equivalent to 3121.2046652295 knots:

5268 feet per second = 3121.2046652295 knots

Alternative conversion
