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 5344 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5344 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

5344 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5344 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 9019.655876341 ft/s

The final result is:

5344 kt → 9019.655876341 ft/s

We conclude that 5344 knots is equivalent to 9019.655876341 feet per second:
