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 145 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 145 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

145 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 145 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 74.59444444438 m/s

The final result is:

145 kt → 74.59444444438 m/s

We conclude that 145 knots is equivalent to 74.59444444438 meters per second:

145 knots = 74.59444444438 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 0.013405824085809 × 145 knots.

Another way is saying that 145 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.013405824085809 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 forty-five knots is approximately seventy-four point five nine four meters per second:

145 kt ≅ 74.594 m/s

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