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 8408 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 8408 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
8408 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 8408 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 4325.4488888852 m/s
The final result is:
8408 kt → 4325.4488888852 m/s
We conclude that 8408 knots is equivalent to 4325.4488888852 meters per second:
8408 knots = 4325.4488888852 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 0.00023118987778809 × 8408 knots.
Another way is saying that 8408 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00023118987778809 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 four hundred eight knots is approximately four thousand three hundred twenty-five point four four nine meters per second:
8408 kt ≅ 4325.449 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times eight thousand four hundred eight knots.
