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 1597 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1597 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
1597 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1597 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 821.56777777707 m/s
The final result is:
1597 kt → 821.56777777707 m/s
We conclude that 1597 knots is equivalent to 821.56777777707 meters per second:
1597 knots = 821.56777777707 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 0.0012171850297071 × 1597 knots.
Another way is saying that 1597 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012171850297071 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 ninety-seven knots is approximately eight hundred twenty-one point five six eight meters per second:
1597 kt ≅ 821.568 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand five hundred ninety-seven knots.
