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 12.4 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 12.4 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
12.4 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 12.4 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 24.103671706284 kt
The final result is:
12.4 m/s → 24.103671706284 kt
We conclude that 12.4 meters per second is equivalent to 24.103671706284 knots:
12.4 meters per second = 24.103671706284 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.041487455197097 × 12.4 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 12.4 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.041487455197097 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that twelve point four meters per second is approximately twenty-four point one zero four knots:
12.4 m/s ≅ 24.104 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero four one times twelve point four meters per second.
