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 5008 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5008 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
5008 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5008 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2576.3377777756 m/s
The final result is:
5008 kt → 2576.3377777756 m/s
We conclude that 5008 knots is equivalent to 2576.3377777756 meters per second:
5008 knots = 2576.3377777756 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 0.0003881478619094 × 5008 knots.
Another way is saying that 5008 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0003881478619094 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 eight knots is approximately two thousand five hundred seventy-six point three three eight meters per second:
5008 kt ≅ 2576.338 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand eight knots.
