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 5714 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 5714 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

5714 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5714 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 9644.1455234679 ft/s

The final result is:

5714 kt → 9644.1455234679 ft/s

We conclude that 5714 knots is equivalent to 9644.1455234679 feet per second:

5714 knots = 9644.1455234679 feet per second
