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 104 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 104 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

104 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 104 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 53.502222222176 m/s

The final result is:

104 kt → 53.502222222176 m/s

We conclude that 104 knots is equivalent to 53.502222222176 meters per second:

104 knots = 53.502222222176 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 0.01869081242733 × 104 knots.

Another way is saying that 104 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.01869081242733 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

104 kt ≅ 53.502 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero one nine times one hundred four knots.
