1687 km/h → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 1687 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1537.438028581 ft/s

The final result is:

1687 km/h → 1537.438028581 ft/s

We conclude that 1687 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 1537.438028581 feet per second:
