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 4942 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 4942 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
4942 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 4942 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 2542.3844444422 m/s
The final result is:
4942 kt → 2542.3844444422 m/s
We conclude that 4942 knots is equivalent to 2542.3844444422 meters per second:
4942 knots = 2542.3844444422 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 0.00039333154440354 × 4942 knots.
Another way is saying that 4942 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00039333154440354 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four thousand nine hundred forty-two knots is approximately two thousand five hundred forty-two point three eight four meters per second:
4942 kt ≅ 2542.384 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times four thousand nine hundred forty-two knots.
