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 6947 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6947 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

6947 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6947 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4115.9849676061 kt

The final result is:

6947 ft/s → 4115.9849676061 kt

We conclude that 6947 feet per second is equivalent to 4115.9849676061 knots:
