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 5522 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5522 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

5522 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5522 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 9320.0860309047 ft/s

The final result is:

5522 kt → 9320.0860309047 ft/s

We conclude that 5522 knots is equivalent to 9320.0860309047 feet per second:

5522 knots = 9320.0860309047 feet per second

Alternative conversion
