Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:

1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt

To convert 2980 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 2980 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt

2980 m/s → V(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V(kt) = 2980 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V(kt) = 5792.656587478 kt

The final result is:

2980 m/s → 5792.656587478 kt

We conclude that 2980 meters per second is equivalent to 5792.656587478 knots:

2980 meters per second = 5792.656587478 knots
