Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:

1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s

To convert 4180 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4180 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s

4180 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4180 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7055.0452026769 ft/s

The final result is:

4180 kt → 7055.0452026769 ft/s

We conclude that 4180 knots is equivalent to 7055.0452026769 feet per second:

4180 knots = 7055.0452026769 feet per second
