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 4740 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4740 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
4740 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 4740 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2438.4666666646 m/s
The final result is:
4740 kt → 2438.4666666646 m/s
We conclude that 4740 knots is equivalent to 2438.4666666646 meters per second:
4740 knots = 2438.4666666646 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 0.00041009377477685 × 4740 knots.
Another way is saying that 4740 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00041009377477685 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 forty knots is approximately two thousand four hundred thirty-eight point four six seven meters per second:
4740 kt ≅ 2438.467 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times four thousand seven hundred forty knots.
