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 4714 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4714 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

4714 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4714 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7956.3356663682 ft/s

The final result is:

4714 kt → 7956.3356663682 ft/s

We conclude that 4714 knots is equivalent to 7956.3356663682 feet per second:

4714 knots = 7956.3356663682 feet per second
