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 5007 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5007 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

5007 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5007 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 8450.8639544984 ft/s

The final result is:

5007 kt → 8450.8639544984 ft/s

We conclude that 5007 knots is equivalent to 8450.8639544984 feet per second:

5007 knots = 8450.8639544984 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.00011833109672387 × 5007 knots.

Another way is saying that 5007 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00011833109672387 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five thousand seven knots is approximately eight thousand four hundred fifty point eight six four feet per second:

5007 kt ≅ 8450.864 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times five thousand seven knots.
