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 1163 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1163 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

1163 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1163 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 598.29888888837 m/s

The final result is:

1163 kt → 598.29888888837 m/s

We conclude that 1163 knots is equivalent to 598.29888888837 meters per second:

1163 knots = 598.29888888837 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 0.0016714054105265 × 1163 knots.

Another way is saying that 1163 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0016714054105265 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 sixty-three knots is approximately five hundred ninety-eight point two nine nine meters per second:

1163 kt ≅ 598.299 m/s

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