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 1479 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1479 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
1479 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1479 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 760.86333333268 m/s
The final result is:
1479 kt → 760.86333333268 m/s
We conclude that 1479 knots is equivalent to 760.86333333268 meters per second:
1479 knots = 760.86333333268 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 0.0013142964790009 × 1479 knots.
Another way is saying that 1479 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0013142964790009 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-nine knots is approximately seven hundred sixty point eight six three meters per second:
1479 kt ≅ 760.863 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand four hundred seventy-nine knots.
