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 4800 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4800 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
4800 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 4800 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2469.3333333312 m/s
The final result is:
4800 kt → 2469.3333333312 m/s
We conclude that 4800 knots is equivalent to 2469.3333333312 meters per second:
4800 knots = 2469.3333333312 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 0.00040496760259214 × 4800 knots.
Another way is saying that 4800 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00040496760259214 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 eight hundred knots is approximately two thousand four hundred sixty-nine point three three three meters per second:
4800 kt ≅ 2469.333 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times four thousand eight hundred knots.
