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 8989 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 8989 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
8989 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 8989 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 4624.3411111071 m/s
The final result is:
8989 kt → 4624.3411111071 m/s
We conclude that 8989 knots is equivalent to 4624.3411111071 meters per second:
8989 knots = 4624.3411111071 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 0.00021624702329984 × 8989 knots.
Another way is saying that 8989 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00021624702329984 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 nine hundred eighty-nine knots is approximately four thousand six hundred twenty-four point three four one meters per second:
8989 kt ≅ 4624.341 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times eight thousand nine hundred eighty-nine knots.
