I think it's European convention to use M/sec (link)

There are lots of conversion programs online or just type "convert x meters per second to knots" into the Google or Bing search window and Google/Bing will convert.

e.g. {convert 5 meters per second to knots} produces the following result from Google: 5 (meters per second) = 9.71922246 knots
