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 6973 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6973 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

6973 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6973 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4131.3895464399 kt

The final result is:

6973 ft/s → 4131.3895464399 kt

We conclude that 6973 feet per second is equivalent to 4131.3895464399 knots:

6973 feet per second = 4131.3895464399 knots
