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 5802 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5802 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

5802 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5802 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3437.5910151218 kt

The final result is:

5802 ft/s → 3437.5910151218 kt

We conclude that 5802 feet per second is equivalent to 3437.5910151218 knots:

5802 feet per second = 3437.5910151218 knots

Alternative conversion
