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 2421 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 2421 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
2421 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 2421 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 1245.4699999989 m/s
The final result is:
2421 kt → 1245.4699999989 m/s
We conclude that 2421 knots is equivalent to 1245.4699999989 meters per second:
2421 knots = 1245.4699999989 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 0.00080290974491627 × 2421 knots.
Another way is saying that 2421 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00080290974491627 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two thousand four hundred twenty-one knots is approximately one thousand two hundred forty-five point four seven meters per second:
2421 kt ≅ 1245.47 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times two thousand four hundred twenty-one knots.
