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 1009.8 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 1009.8 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

1009.8 m/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 1009.8 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V(kt) = 1962.8941684682 kt

The final result is:

1009.8 m/s → 1962.8941684682 kt

We conclude that 1009.8 meters per second is equivalent to 1962.8941684682 knots:

1009.8 meters per second = 1962.8941684682 knots

Alternative conversion
