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 9637 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 9637 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

9637 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 9637 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 5709.7663930935 kt

The final result is:

9637 ft/s → 5709.7663930935 kt

We conclude that 9637 feet per second is equivalent to 5709.7663930935 knots:

9637 feet per second = 5709.7663930935 knots

Alternative conversion
