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 8046 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8046 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

8046 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8046 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4767.1246652309 kt

The final result is:

8046 ft/s → 4767.1246652309 kt

We conclude that 8046 feet per second is equivalent to 4767.1246652309 knots:

8046 feet per second = 4767.1246652309 knots

Alternative conversion
