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 7609 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 7609 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

7609 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 7609 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4508.2092440644 kt

The final result is:

7609 ft/s → 4508.2092440644 kt

We conclude that 7609 feet per second is equivalent to 4508.2092440644 knots:

7609 feet per second = 4508.2092440644 knots

Alternative conversion
