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 7017 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 7017 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

7017 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 7017 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 11843.361767269 ft/s

The final result is:

7017 kt → 11843.361767269 ft/s

We conclude that 7017 knots is equivalent to 11843.361767269 feet per second:

7017 knots = 11843.361767269 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 8.4435485434859E-5 × 7017 knots.

Another way is saying that 7017 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 8.4435485434859E-5 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven thousand seventeen knots is approximately eleven thousand eight hundred forty-three point three six two feet per second:

7017 kt ≅ 11843.362 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero times seven thousand seventeen knots.
