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 6383 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6383 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

6383 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6383 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3781.824103675 kt

The final result is:

6383 ft/s → 3781.824103675 kt

We conclude that 6383 feet per second is equivalent to 3781.824103675 knots:

6383 feet per second = 3781.824103675 knots

Alternative conversion
