Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:

1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt

To convert 1600 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 1600 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt

1600 m/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 1600 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 3110.1511879077 kt

The final result is:

1600 m/s → 3110.1511879077 kt

We conclude that 1600 meters per second is equivalent to 3110.1511879077 knots:

1600 meters per second = 3110.1511879077 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0003215277777775 × 1600 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 1600 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0003215277777775 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand six hundred meters per second is approximately three thousand one hundred ten point one five one knots:

1600 m/s ≅ 3110.151 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times one thousand six hundred meters per second.
