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 4733 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4733 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

4733 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4733 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 7988.4040536531 ft/s

The final result is:

4733 kt → 7988.4040536531 ft/s

We conclude that 4733 knots is equivalent to 7988.4040536531 feet per second:
