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 5310 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5310 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

5310 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5310 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 8962.2703411996 ft/s

The final result is:

5310 kt → 8962.2703411996 ft/s

We conclude that 5310 knots is equivalent to 8962.2703411996 feet per second:

5310 knots = 8962.2703411996 feet per second

Alternative conversion
