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 7909 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 7909 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

7909 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 7909 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4685.9543844533 kt

The final result is:

7909 ft/s → 4685.9543844533 kt

We conclude that 7909 feet per second is equivalent to 4685.9543844533 knots:

7909 feet per second = 4685.9543844533 knots

Alternative conversion
