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 5663 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5663 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

5663 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5663 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3355.2357667416 kt

The final result is:

5663 ft/s → 3355.2357667416 kt

We conclude that 5663 feet per second is equivalent to 3355.2357667416 knots:

5663 feet per second = 3355.2357667416 knots
