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 89 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 89 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
89 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 89 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 45.785555555516 m/s
The final result is:
89 kt → 45.785555555516 m/s
We conclude that 89 knots is equivalent to 45.785555555516 meters per second:
89 knots = 45.785555555516 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 0.021840949353284 × 89 knots.
Another way is saying that 89 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.021840949353284 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighty-nine knots is approximately forty-five point seven eight six meters per second:
89 kt ≅ 45.786 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero two two times eighty-nine knots.
