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 5489 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5489 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
5489 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5489 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2823.7855555531 m/s
The final result is:
5489 kt → 2823.7855555531 m/s
We conclude that 5489 knots is equivalent to 2823.7855555531 meters per second:
5489 knots = 2823.7855555531 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 0.00035413454043401 × 5489 knots.
Another way is saying that 5489 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00035413454043401 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 four hundred eighty-nine knots is approximately two thousand eight hundred twenty-three point seven eight six meters per second:
5489 kt ≅ 2823.786 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand four hundred eighty-nine knots.
