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 7864 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 7864 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

7864 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 7864 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4659.292613395 kt

The final result is:

7864 ft/s → 4659.292613395 kt

We conclude that 7864 feet per second is equivalent to 4659.292613395 knots:
