A knot is a measure of speed: 1 nautical mile per hour; it has absolutely nothing to do with metres

As stated above a knot is a rate of speed. 1 nautical mile is 1852 metres. Therefore if you are travelling at one knot you are also travelling at 1852 metres per hour.

If the knot (w) travels 2 meters in 1 second, we say it has a speed of 2 meters per second (2 m/s). The "ms" in your question seems to be a typo, as speed is typically expressed in meters per second (m/s) rather than "ms." Therefore, the correct statement would be that the knot has a speed of 2 m/s.
