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 1140 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1140 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

1140 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 1140 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 586.46666666616 m/s

The final result is:

1140 kt → 586.46666666616 m/s

We conclude that 1140 knots is equivalent to 586.46666666616 meters per second:

1140 knots = 586.46666666616 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 0.0017051267477564 × 1140 knots.

Another way is saying that 1140 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0017051267477564 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 one hundred forty knots is approximately five hundred eighty-six point four six seven meters per second:

1140 kt ≅ 586.467 m/s

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