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 127 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 127 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

127 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 127 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 65.334444444388 m/s

The final result is:

127 kt → 65.334444444388 m/s

We conclude that 127 knots is equivalent to 65.334444444388 meters per second:

127 knots = 65.334444444388 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 0.015305862145215 × 127 knots.

Another way is saying that 127 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.015305862145215 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred twenty-seven knots is approximately sixty-five point three three four meters per second:

127 kt ≅ 65.334 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero one five times one hundred twenty-seven knots.
