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 5220 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5220 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
5220 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5220 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2685.3999999977 m/s
The final result is:
5220 kt → 2685.3999999977 m/s
We conclude that 5220 knots is equivalent to 2685.3999999977 meters per second:
5220 knots = 2685.3999999977 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 0.00037238400238358 × 5220 knots.
Another way is saying that 5220 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00037238400238358 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 two hundred twenty knots is approximately two thousand six hundred eighty-five point four meters per second:
5220 kt ≅ 2685.4 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand two hundred twenty knots.
