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 6974 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 6974 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

6974 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 6974 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4131.9820302412 kt

The final result is:

6974 ft/s → 4131.9820302412 kt

We conclude that 6974 feet per second is equivalent to 4131.9820302412 knots:

6974 feet per second = 4131.9820302412 knots

Alternative conversion
