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 5720 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5720 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
5720 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5720 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2942.6222222197 m/s
The final result is:
5720 kt → 2942.6222222197 m/s
We conclude that 5720 knots is equivalent to 2942.6222222197 meters per second:
5720 knots = 2942.6222222197 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 0.00033983295322418 × 5720 knots.
Another way is saying that 5720 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00033983295322418 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 twenty knots is approximately two thousand nine hundred forty-two point six two two meters per second:
5720 kt ≅ 2942.622 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand seven hundred twenty knots.
