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 2937 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 2937 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
2937 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 2937 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 1510.923333332 m/s
The final result is:
2937 kt → 1510.923333332 m/s
We conclude that 2937 knots is equivalent to 1510.923333332 meters per second:
2937 knots = 1510.923333332 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 0.00066184695009952 × 2937 knots.
Another way is saying that 2937 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00066184695009952 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 nine hundred thirty-seven knots is approximately one thousand five hundred ten point nine two three meters per second:
2937 kt ≅ 1510.923 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand nine hundred thirty-seven knots.
