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 4542 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4542 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

4542 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4542 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7666.032370947 ft/s

The final result is:

4542 kt → 7666.032370947 ft/s

We conclude that 4542 knots is equivalent to 7666.032370947 feet per second:

4542 knots = 7666.032370947 feet per second
