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 6787 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6787 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

6787 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6787 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4021.1875593987 kt

The final result is:

6787 ft/s → 4021.1875593987 kt

We conclude that 6787 feet per second is equivalent to 4021.1875593987 knots:

6787 feet per second = 4021.1875593987 knots

Alternative conversion
