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 9731 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 9731 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

9731 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 9731 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 5765.4598704153 kt

The final result is:

9731 ft/s → 5765.4598704153 kt

We conclude that 9731 feet per second is equivalent to 5765.4598704153 knots:

9731 feet per second = 5765.4598704153 knots

Alternative conversion
