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 4701 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4701 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

4701 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4701 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7934.3941382259 ft/s

The final result is:

4701 kt → 7934.3941382259 ft/s

We conclude that 4701 knots is equivalent to 7934.3941382259 feet per second:

4701 knots = 7934.3941382259 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00012603356760187 × 4701 knots.

Another way is saying that 4701 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00012603356760187 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four thousand seven hundred one knots is approximately seven thousand nine hundred thirty-four point three nine four feet per second:

4701 kt ≅ 7934.394 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times four thousand seven hundred one knots.
