Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:

1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt

To convert 4997 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 4997 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt

4997 m/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 4997 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 9713.3909287341 kt

The final result is:

4997 m/s → 9713.3909287341 kt

We conclude that 4997 meters per second is equivalent to 9713.3909287341 knots:

4997 meters per second = 9713.3909287341 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00010295065928437 × 4997 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 4997 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00010295065928437 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four thousand nine hundred ninety-seven meters per second is approximately nine thousand seven hundred thirteen point three nine one knots:

4997 m/s ≅ 9713.391 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times four thousand nine hundred ninety-seven meters per second.
