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 6716 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6716 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

6716 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6716 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 3979.1212095067 kt

The final result is:

6716 ft/s → 3979.1212095067 kt

We conclude that 6716 feet per second is equivalent to 3979.1212095067 knots:

6716 feet per second = 3979.1212095067 knots

Alternative conversion
