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 1471 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1471 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

1471 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1471 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 756.74777777712 m/s

The final result is:

1471 kt → 756.74777777712 m/s

We conclude that 1471 knots is equivalent to 756.74777777712 meters per second:

1471 knots = 756.74777777712 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 0.0013214442504706 × 1471 knots.

Another way is saying that 1471 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0013214442504706 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 seventy-one knots is approximately seven hundred fifty-six point seven four eight meters per second:

1471 kt ≅ 756.748 m/s

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