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 8053 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8053 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

8053 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8053 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4771.27205184 kt

The final result is:

8053 ft/s → 4771.27205184 kt

We conclude that 8053 feet per second is equivalent to 4771.27205184 knots:

8053 feet per second = 4771.27205184 knots

Alternative conversion
