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 4250 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4250 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

4250 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4250 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7173.1918926739 ft/s

The final result is:

4250 kt → 7173.1918926739 ft/s

We conclude that 4250 knots is equivalent to 7173.1918926739 feet per second:

4250 knots = 7173.1918926739 feet per second

Alternative conversion
