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 6520 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6520 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

6520 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6520 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3862.9943844526 kt

The final result is:

6520 ft/s → 3862.9943844526 kt

We conclude that 6520 feet per second is equivalent to 3862.9943844526 knots:

6520 feet per second = 3862.9943844526 knots

Alternative conversion
