Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:
1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s
To convert 6.4 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 6.4 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s
6.4 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 6.4 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 10.801983085438 ft/s
The final result is:
6.4 kt → 10.801983085438 ft/s
We conclude that 6.4 knots is equivalent to 10.801983085438 feet per second:
6.4 knots = 10.801983085438 feet per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.092575593952564 × 6.4 knots.
Another way is saying that 6.4 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.092575593952564 feet per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six point four knots is approximately ten point eight zero two feet per second:
6.4 kt ≅ 10.802 ft/s
An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero nine three times six point four knots.
