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 5360 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5360 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

5360 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5360 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3175.7131749487 kt

The final result is:

5360 ft/s → 3175.7131749487 kt

We conclude that 5360 feet per second is equivalent to 3175.7131749487 knots:

5360 feet per second = 3175.7131749487 knots

Alternative conversion
