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 4702 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4702 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

4702 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4702 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7936.081948083 ft/s

The final result is:

4702 kt → 7936.081948083 ft/s

We conclude that 4702 knots is equivalent to 7936.081948083 feet per second:

4702 knots = 7936.081948083 feet per second

Alternative conversion
