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 9702 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 9702 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

9702 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 9702 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 16375.131233582 ft/s

The final result is:

9702 kt → 16375.131233582 ft/s

We conclude that 9702 knots is equivalent to 16375.131233582 feet per second:

9702 knots = 16375.131233582 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 6.1068212873264E-5 × 9702 knots.

Another way is saying that 9702 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 6.1068212873264E-5 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine thousand seven hundred two knots is approximately sixteen thousand three hundred seventy-five point one three one feet per second:

9702 kt ≅ 16375.131 ft/s

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