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 4940 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4940 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
4940 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 4940 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2541.3555555534 m/s
The final result is:
4940 kt → 2541.3555555534 m/s
We conclude that 4940 knots is equivalent to 2541.3555555534 meters per second:
4940 knots = 2541.3555555534 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 0.00039349078794378 × 4940 knots.
Another way is saying that 4940 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00039349078794378 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 nine hundred forty knots is approximately two thousand five hundred forty-one point three five six meters per second:
4940 kt ≅ 2541.356 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times four thousand nine hundred forty knots.
