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 8062 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8062 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

8062 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8062 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4776.6044060516 kt

The final result is:

8062 ft/s → 4776.6044060516 kt

We conclude that 8062 feet per second is equivalent to 4776.6044060516 knots:

8062 feet per second = 4776.6044060516 knots

Alternative conversion
