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 5001 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5001 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
5001 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5001 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2572.7366666644 m/s
The final result is:
5001 kt → 2572.7366666644 m/s
We conclude that 5001 knots is equivalent to 2572.7366666644 meters per second:
5001 knots = 2572.7366666644 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 0.00038869116025641 × 5001 knots.
Another way is saying that 5001 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00038869116025641 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five thousand one knots is approximately two thousand five hundred seventy-two point seven three seven meters per second:
5001 kt ≅ 2572.737 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand one knots.
