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 9740 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 9740 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

9740 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 9740 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 5010.6888888846 m/s

The final result is:

9740 kt → 5010.6888888846 m/s

We conclude that 9740 knots is equivalent to 5010.6888888846 meters per second:

9740 knots = 5010.6888888846 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 0.00019957335651358 × 9740 knots.

Another way is saying that 9740 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00019957335651358 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 seven hundred forty knots is approximately five thousand ten point six eight nine meters per second:

9740 kt ≅ 5010.689 m/s

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