Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to kilometers per hour is 1.0972799999991, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 1.0972799999991 kilometers per hour:

1 ft/s = 1.0972799999991 km/h

To convert 9700 feet per second into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 9700 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 1.0972799999991 km/h

9700 ft/s → V_(km/h)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:

V_(km/h) = 9700 ft/s × 1.0972799999991 km/h

V_(km/h) = 10643.615999991 km/h

The final result is:

9700 ft/s → 10643.615999991 km/h

We conclude that 9700 feet per second is equivalent to 10643.615999991 kilometers per hour:

9700 feet per second = 10643.615999991 kilometers per hour
