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 4704 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4704 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

4704 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4704 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7939.4575677972 ft/s

The final result is:

4704 kt → 7939.4575677972 ft/s

We conclude that 4704 knots is equivalent to 7939.4575677972 feet per second:

4704 knots = 7939.4575677972 feet per second
