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 4701 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4701 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

4701 kt → V_(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V_(m/s) = 4701 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 2418.4033333312 m/s

The final result is:

4701 kt → 2418.4033333312 m/s

We conclude that 4701 knots is equivalent to 2418.4033333312 meters per second:

4701 knots = 2418.4033333312 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 0.00041349595669906 × 4701 knots.

Another way is saying that 4701 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00041349595669906 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 seven hundred one knots is approximately two thousand four hundred eighteen point four zero three meters per second:

4701 kt ≅ 2418.403 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times four thousand seven hundred one knots.
