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 4945 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 4945 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

4945 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 4945 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 8346.2197433582 ft/s

The final result is:

4945 kt → 8346.2197433582 ft/s

We conclude that 4945 knots is equivalent to 8346.2197433582 feet per second:

4945 knots = 8346.2197433582 feet per second
