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 5717 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5717 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
5717 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5717 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2941.0788888863 m/s
The final result is:
5717 kt → 2941.0788888863 m/s
We conclude that 5717 knots is equivalent to 2941.0788888863 meters per second:
5717 knots = 2941.0788888863 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 0.00034001128081901 × 5717 knots.
Another way is saying that 5717 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00034001128081901 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 seven hundred seventeen knots is approximately two thousand nine hundred forty-one point zero seven nine meters per second:
5717 kt ≅ 2941.079 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand seven hundred seventeen knots.
