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 6996 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 6996 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
6996 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 6996 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 3599.0533333302 m/s
The final result is:
6996 kt → 3599.0533333302 m/s
We conclude that 6996 knots is equivalent to 3599.0533333302 meters per second:
6996 knots = 3599.0533333302 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 0.00027785084225876 × 6996 knots.
Another way is saying that 6996 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00027785084225876 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six thousand nine hundred ninety-six knots is approximately three thousand five hundred ninety-nine point zero five three meters per second:
6996 kt ≅ 3599.053 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times six thousand nine hundred ninety-six knots.
