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 5477 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5477 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

5477 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5477 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3245.0337797004 kt

The final result is:

5477 ft/s → 3245.0337797004 kt

We conclude that 5477 feet per second is equivalent to 3245.0337797004 knots:

5477 feet per second = 3245.0337797004 knots
