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 1630 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1630 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

1630 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1630 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 838.54444444372 m/s

The final result is:

1630 kt → 838.54444444372 m/s

We conclude that 1630 knots is equivalent to 838.54444444372 meters per second:

1630 knots = 838.54444444372 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 0.0011925426334002 × 1630 knots.

Another way is saying that 1630 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0011925426334002 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 thirty knots is approximately eight hundred thirty-eight point five four four meters per second:

1630 kt ≅ 838.544 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand six hundred thirty knots.
