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 1002 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1002 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

1002 kt → V(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V(m/s) = 1002 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 515.47333333289 m/s

The final result is:

1002 kt → 515.47333333289 m/s

We conclude that 1002 knots is equivalent to 515.47333333289 meters per second:

1002 knots = 515.47333333289 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 0.0019399645633157 × 1002 knots.

Another way is saying that 1002 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0019399645633157 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand two knots is approximately five hundred fifteen point four seven three meters per second:

1002 kt ≅ 515.473 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times one thousand two knots.
