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 8222 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8222 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

8222 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8222 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4871.4018142591 kt

The final result is:

8222 ft/s → 4871.4018142591 kt

We conclude that 8222 feet per second is equivalent to 4871.4018142591 knots:

8222 feet per second = 4871.4018142591 knots

Alternative conversion
