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 9587 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 9587 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

9587 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 9587 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 5680.1422030287 kt

The final result is:

9587 ft/s → 5680.1422030287 kt

We conclude that 9587 feet per second is equivalent to 5680.1422030287 knots:

9587 feet per second = 5680.1422030287 knots
