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 8501 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 8501 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
8501 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 8501 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 14348.071595205 ft/s
The final result is:
8501 kt → 14348.071595205 ft/s
We conclude that 8501 knots is equivalent to 14348.071595205 feet per second:
8501 knots = 14348.071595205 feet per second
Alternative conversion
