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 6236 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6236 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

6236 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6236 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3694.7289848844 kt

The final result is:

6236 ft/s → 3694.7289848844 kt

We conclude that 6236 feet per second is equivalent to 3694.7289848844 knots:

6236 feet per second = 3694.7289848844 knots
