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 5030 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5030 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
5030 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 5030 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 8489.6835812117 ft/s
The final result is:
5030 kt → 8489.6835812117 ft/s
We conclude that 5030 knots is equivalent to 8489.6835812117 feet per second:
