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 4200 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4200 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
4200 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 4200 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2160.6666666648 m/s
The final result is:
4200 kt → 2160.6666666648 m/s
We conclude that 4200 knots is equivalent to 2160.6666666648 meters per second:
4200 knots = 2160.6666666648 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 0.00046282011724816 × 4200 knots.
Another way is saying that 4200 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00046282011724816 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four thousand two hundred knots is approximately two thousand one hundred sixty point six six seven meters per second:
4200 kt ≅ 2160.667 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times four thousand two hundred knots.
