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 7220 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 7220 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

7220 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 7220 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4277.7330453601 kt

The final result is:

7220 ft/s → 4277.7330453601 kt

We conclude that 7220 feet per second is equivalent to 4277.7330453601 knots:

7220 feet per second = 4277.7330453601 knots

Alternative conversion
