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 5304 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5304 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

5304 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5304 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 8952.143482057 ft/s

The final result is:

5304 kt → 8952.143482057 ft/s

We conclude that 5304 knots is equivalent to 8952.143482057 feet per second:

5304 knots = 8952.143482057 feet per second

Alternative conversion
