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 9904 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 9904 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

9904 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 9904 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 5867.9595680396 kt

The final result is:

9904 ft/s → 5867.9595680396 kt

We conclude that 9904 feet per second is equivalent to 5867.9595680396 knots:

9904 feet per second = 5867.9595680396 knots

Alternative conversion
