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 7272 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 7272 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

7272 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 7272 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4308.5422030275 kt

The final result is:

7272 ft/s → 4308.5422030275 kt

We conclude that 7272 feet per second is equivalent to 4308.5422030275 knots:

7272 feet per second = 4308.5422030275 knots
