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 8818 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 8818 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

8818 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8818 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 5224.5221598317 kt

The final result is:

8818 ft/s → 5224.5221598317 kt

We conclude that 8818 feet per second is equivalent to 5224.5221598317 knots:

8818 feet per second = 5224.5221598317 knots

Alternative conversion
