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 4637 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4637 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

4637 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4637 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7826.3743073715 ft/s

The final result is:

4637 kt → 7826.3743073715 ft/s

We conclude that 4637 knots is equivalent to 7826.3743073715 feet per second:

4637 knots = 7826.3743073715 feet per second
