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 148 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 148 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

148 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 148 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 76.137777777712 m/s

The final result is:

148 kt → 76.137777777712 m/s

We conclude that 148 knots is equivalent to 76.137777777712 meters per second:

148 knots = 76.137777777712 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 0.013134084408394 × 148 knots.

Another way is saying that 148 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.013134084408394 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-eight knots is approximately seventy-six point one three eight meters per second:

148 kt ≅ 76.138 m/s

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