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 4500 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4500 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

4500 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4500 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7595.1443569488 ft/s

The final result is:

4500 kt → 7595.1443569488 ft/s

We conclude that 4500 knots is equivalent to 7595.1443569488 feet per second:

4500 knots = 7595.1443569488 feet per second

Alternative conversion
