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 2088 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 2088 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

2088 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 2088 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 1074.1599999991 m/s

The final result is:

2088 kt → 1074.1599999991 m/s

We conclude that 2088 knots is equivalent to 1074.1599999991 meters per second:

2088 knots = 1074.1599999991 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 0.00093096000595895 × 2088 knots.

Another way is saying that 2088 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00093096000595895 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 eighty-eight knots is approximately one thousand seventy-four point one six meters per second:

2088 kt ≅ 1074.16 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand eighty-eight knots.
