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 8061 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8061 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

8061 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8061 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4776.0119222503 kt

The final result is:

8061 ft/s → 4776.0119222503 kt

We conclude that 8061 feet per second is equivalent to 4776.0119222503 knots:

8061 feet per second = 4776.0119222503 knots

Alternative conversion
