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 1426 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1426 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

1426 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1426 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 733.59777777714 m/s

The final result is:

1426 kt → 733.59777777714 m/s

We conclude that 1426 knots is equivalent to 733.59777777714 meters per second:

1426 knots = 733.59777777714 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 0.0013631448053592 × 1426 knots.

Another way is saying that 1426 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0013631448053592 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 four hundred twenty-six knots is approximately seven hundred thirty-three point five nine eight meters per second:

1426 kt ≅ 733.598 m/s

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