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 8000 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 8000 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
8000 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 8000 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 4115.555555552 m/s
The final result is:
8000 kt → 4115.555555552 m/s
We conclude that 8000 knots is equivalent to 4115.555555552 meters per second:
8000 knots = 4115.555555552 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 0.00024298056155529 × 8000 knots.
Another way is saying that 8000 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00024298056155529 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight thousand knots is approximately four thousand one hundred fifteen point five five six meters per second:
8000 kt ≅ 4115.556 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times eight thousand knots.
