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 4616 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4616 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

4616 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4616 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7790.9303003724 ft/s

The final result is:

4616 kt → 7790.9303003724 ft/s

We conclude that 4616 knots is equivalent to 7790.9303003724 feet per second:

4616 knots = 7790.9303003724 feet per second
