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 4202 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4202 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

4202 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4202 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7092.1770195331 ft/s

The final result is:

4202 kt → 7092.1770195331 ft/s

We conclude that 4202 knots is equivalent to 7092.1770195331 feet per second:

4202 knots = 7092.1770195331 feet per second
