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 120 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 120 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
120 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 120 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 233.26133909307 kt
The final result is:
120 m/s → 233.26133909307 kt
We conclude that 120 meters per second is equivalent to 233.26133909307 knots:
120 meters per second = 233.26133909307 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0042870370370333 × 120 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 120 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0042870370370333 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred twenty meters per second is approximately two hundred thirty-three point two six one knots:
120 m/s ≅ 233.261 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times one hundred twenty meters per second.
