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 2589 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 2589 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
2589 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 2589 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 1331.8966666655 m/s
The final result is:
2589 kt → 1331.8966666655 m/s
We conclude that 2589 knots is equivalent to 1331.8966666655 meters per second:
2589 knots = 1331.8966666655 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 0.00075080899669459 × 2589 knots.
Another way is saying that 2589 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00075080899669459 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 five hundred eighty-nine knots is approximately one thousand three hundred thirty-one point eight nine seven meters per second:
2589 kt ≅ 1331.897 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand five hundred eighty-nine knots.
