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 4748 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4748 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

4748 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 4748 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 2442.5822222201 m/s

The final result is:

4748 kt → 2442.5822222201 m/s

We conclude that 4748 knots is equivalent to 2442.5822222201 meters per second:

4748 knots = 2442.5822222201 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 0.00040940279958768 × 4748 knots.

Another way is saying that 4748 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00040940279958768 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-eight knots is approximately two thousand four hundred forty-two point five eight two meters per second:

4748 kt ≅ 2442.582 m/s

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