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 2400 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 2400 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
2400 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 2400 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 1234.6666666656 m/s
The final result is:
2400 kt → 1234.6666666656 m/s
We conclude that 2400 knots is equivalent to 1234.6666666656 meters per second:
2400 knots = 1234.6666666656 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 0.00080993520518429 × 2400 knots.
Another way is saying that 2400 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00080993520518429 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 four hundred knots is approximately one thousand two hundred thirty-four point six six seven meters per second:
2400 kt ≅ 1234.667 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand four hundred knots.
