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 8400 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 8400 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
8400 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 8400 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 14177.602799638 ft/s
The final result is:
8400 kt → 14177.602799638 ft/s
We conclude that 8400 knots is equivalent to 14177.602799638 feet per second:
