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 1189 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 1189 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

1189 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1189 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 2311.2311015139 kt

The final result is:

1189 m/s → 2311.2311015139 kt

We conclude that 1189 meters per second is equivalent to 2311.2311015139 knots:

1189 meters per second = 2311.2311015139 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00043266984393944 × 1189 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 1189 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00043266984393944 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand one hundred eighty-nine meters per second is approximately two thousand three hundred eleven point two three one knots:

1189 m/s ≅ 2311.231 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times one thousand one hundred eighty-nine meters per second.
