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 8042 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 8042 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
8042 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 8042 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 4137.1622222186 m/s
The final result is:
8042 kt → 4137.1622222186 m/s
We conclude that 8042 knots is equivalent to 4137.1622222186 meters per second:
8042 knots = 4137.1622222186 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 0.00024171157578243 × 8042 knots.
Another way is saying that 8042 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00024171157578243 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 forty-two knots is approximately four thousand one hundred thirty-seven point one six two meters per second:
8042 kt ≅ 4137.162 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero times eight thousand forty-two knots.
