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 9740 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 9740 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
9740 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 9740 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 16439.268008151 ft/s
The final result is:
9740 kt → 16439.268008151 ft/s
We conclude that 9740 knots is equivalent to 16439.268008151 feet per second:
