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 1430 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1430 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

1430 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 1430 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 735.65555555492 m/s

The final result is:

1430 kt → 735.65555555492 m/s

We conclude that 1430 knots is equivalent to 735.65555555492 meters per second:

1430 knots = 735.65555555492 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 0.0013593318128967 × 1430 knots.

Another way is saying that 1430 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0013593318128967 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 thirty knots is approximately seven hundred thirty-five point six five six meters per second:

1430 kt ≅ 735.656 m/s

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