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 8233 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8233 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

8233 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8233 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4877.9191360733 kt

The final result is:

8233 ft/s → 4877.9191360733 kt

We conclude that 8233 feet per second is equivalent to 4877.9191360733 knots:

8233 feet per second = 4877.9191360733 knots
