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 9636 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 9636 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

9636 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 9636 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 5709.1739092922 kt

The final result is:

9636 ft/s → 5709.1739092922 kt

We conclude that 9636 feet per second is equivalent to 5709.1739092922 knots:

9636 feet per second = 5709.1739092922 knots

Alternative conversion
