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 1531 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1531 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
1531 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1531 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 787.61444444376 m/s
The final result is:
1531 kt → 787.61444444376 m/s
We conclude that 1531 knots is equivalent to 787.61444444376 meters per second:
1531 knots = 787.61444444376 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 0.0012696567553509 × 1531 knots.
Another way is saying that 1531 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012696567553509 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 thirty-one knots is approximately seven hundred eighty-seven point six one four meters per second:
1531 kt ≅ 787.614 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand five hundred thirty-one knots.
