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 8207 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8207 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

8207 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8207 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4862.5145572396 kt

The final result is:

8207 ft/s → 4862.5145572396 kt

We conclude that 8207 feet per second is equivalent to 4862.5145572396 knots:

8207 feet per second = 4862.5145572396 knots
