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 5808 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 5808 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
5808 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 5808 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2987.8933333308 m/s
The final result is:
5808 kt → 2987.8933333308 m/s
We conclude that 5808 knots is equivalent to 2987.8933333308 meters per second:
5808 knots = 2987.8933333308 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 0.00033468396908442 × 5808 knots.
Another way is saying that 5808 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00033468396908442 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 hundred eight knots is approximately two thousand nine hundred eighty-seven point eight nine three meters per second:
5808 kt ≅ 2987.893 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times five thousand eight hundred eight knots.
