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 4648 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4648 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

4648 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4648 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7844.9402157996 ft/s

The final result is:

4648 kt → 7844.9402157996 ft/s

We conclude that 4648 knots is equivalent to 7844.9402157996 feet per second:

4648 knots = 7844.9402157996 feet per second
