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 1521 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1521 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

1521 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 1521 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 782.46999999932 m/s

The final result is:

1521 kt → 782.46999999932 m/s

We conclude that 1521 knots is equivalent to 782.46999999932 meters per second:

1521 knots = 782.46999999932 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 0.0012780042685354 × 1521 knots.

Another way is saying that 1521 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012780042685354 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 five hundred twenty-one knots is approximately seven hundred eighty-two point four seven meters per second:

1521 kt ≅ 782.47 m/s

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