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 5012 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5012 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
5012 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 5012 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 8459.3030037839 ft/s
The final result is:
5012 kt → 8459.3030037839 ft/s
We conclude that 5012 knots is equivalent to 8459.3030037839 feet per second:
