Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers per hour to feet per second is 0.91134441528215, which means that 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.91134441528215 feet per second:

1 km/h = 0.91134441528215 ft/s

To convert 470 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 470 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from kilometers per hour to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km/h → 0.91134441528215 ft/s

470 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 470 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 428.33187518261 ft/s

The final result is:

470 km/h → 428.33187518261 ft/s

We conclude that 470 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 428.33187518261 feet per second:

470 kilometers per hour = 428.33187518261 feet per second
