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 9420 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 9420 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

9420 kt → V_(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V_(m/s) = 9420 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 4846.0666666625 m/s

The final result is:

9420 kt → 4846.0666666625 m/s

We conclude that 9420 knots is equivalent to 4846.0666666625 meters per second:

9420 knots = 4846.0666666625 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 0.00020635291851829 × 9420 knots.

Another way is saying that 9420 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00020635291851829 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine thousand four hundred twenty knots is approximately four thousand eight hundred forty-six point zero six seven meters per second:

9420 kt ≅ 4846.067 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times nine thousand four hundred twenty knots.
