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 5816 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 5816 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

5816 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5816 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3445.8857883399 kt

The final result is:

5816 ft/s → 3445.8857883399 kt

We conclude that 5816 feet per second is equivalent to 3445.8857883399 knots:

5816 feet per second = 3445.8857883399 knots

Alternative conversion
