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 1680 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1680 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
1680 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1680 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 864.26666666592 m/s
The final result is:
1680 kt → 864.26666666592 m/s
We conclude that 1680 knots is equivalent to 864.26666666592 meters per second:
1680 knots = 864.26666666592 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 0.0011570502931204 × 1680 knots.
Another way is saying that 1680 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0011570502931204 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 eighty knots is approximately eight hundred sixty-four point two six seven meters per second:
1680 kt ≅ 864.267 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand six hundred eighty knots.
