Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to meters per second is 0.514444444444, which means that 1 knot is equal to 0.514444444444 meters per second:
1 kt = 0.514444444444 m/s
To convert 2008 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 2008 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 0.514444444444 m/s
2008 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 2008 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 1033.0044444436 m/s
The final result is:
2008 kt → 1033.0044444436 m/s
We conclude that 2008 knots is equivalent to 1033.0044444436 meters per second:
2008 knots = 1033.0044444436 meters per second
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter per second is equal to 0.00096805004603699 × 2008 knots.
Another way is saying that 2008 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00096805004603699 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two thousand eight knots is approximately one thousand thirty-three point zero zero four meters per second:
2008 kt ≅ 1033.004 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand eight knots.
