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 1600 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1600 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
1600 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1600 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 823.1111111104 m/s
The final result is:
1600 kt → 823.1111111104 m/s
We conclude that 1600 knots is equivalent to 823.1111111104 meters per second:
1600 knots = 823.1111111104 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 0.0012149028077764 × 1600 knots.
Another way is saying that 1600 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012149028077764 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 six hundred knots is approximately eight hundred twenty-three point one one one meters per second:
1600 kt ≅ 823.111 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand six hundred knots.
