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 5314 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5314 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

5314 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5314 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3148.4589200891 kt

The final result is:

5314 ft/s → 3148.4589200891 kt

We conclude that 5314 feet per second is equivalent to 3148.4589200891 knots:

5314 feet per second = 3148.4589200891 knots
