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 5760 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5760 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

5760 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5760 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3412.7066954673 kt

The final result is:

5760 ft/s → 3412.7066954673 kt

We conclude that 5760 feet per second is equivalent to 3412.7066954673 knots:

5760 feet per second = 3412.7066954673 knots

Alternative conversion
