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 1321 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1321 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

1321 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1321 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 679.58111111052 m/s

The final result is:

1321 kt → 679.58111111052 m/s

We conclude that 1321 knots is equivalent to 679.58111111052 meters per second:

1321 knots = 679.58111111052 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 0.0014714946952629 × 1321 knots.

Another way is saying that 1321 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0014714946952629 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 three hundred twenty-one knots is approximately six hundred seventy-nine point five eight one meters per second:

1321 kt ≅ 679.581 m/s

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