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 4811 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 4811 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

4811 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 4811 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 2850.439568037 kt

The final result is:

4811 ft/s → 2850.439568037 kt

We conclude that 4811 feet per second is equivalent to 2850.439568037 knots:

4811 feet per second = 2850.439568037 knots

Alternative conversion
