Conversion formula
The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:
1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt
To convert 8240 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 8240 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt
8240 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 8240 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 16017.278617724 kt
The final result is:
8240 m/s → 16017.278617724 kt
We conclude that 8240 meters per second is equivalent to 16017.278617724 knots:
8240 meters per second = 16017.278617724 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 6.2432578209223E-5 × 8240 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 8240 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 6.2432578209223E-5 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight thousand two hundred forty meters per second is approximately sixteen thousand seventeen point two seven nine knots:
8240 m/s ≅ 16017.279 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times eight thousand two hundred forty meters per second.
