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 5630 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5630 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

5630 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5630 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 9502.3694954715 ft/s

The final result is:

5630 kt → 9502.3694954715 ft/s

We conclude that 5630 knots is equivalent to 9502.3694954715 feet per second:

5630 knots = 9502.3694954715 feet per second
