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 8314 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8314 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

8314 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8314 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 4925.9103239783 kt

The final result is:

8314 ft/s → 4925.9103239783 kt

We conclude that 8314 feet per second is equivalent to 4925.9103239783 knots:

8314 feet per second = 4925.9103239783 knots

Alternative conversion
