Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:

1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt

To convert 100 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 100 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt

100 m/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 100 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 194.38444924423 kt

The final result is:

100 m/s → 194.38444924423 kt

We conclude that 100 meters per second is equivalent to 194.38444924423 knots:

100 meters per second = 194.38444924423 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00514444444444 × 100 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 100 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00514444444444 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred meters per second is approximately one hundred ninety-four point three eight four knots:

100 m/s ≅ 194.384 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero five times one hundred meters per second.
