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 1730 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1730 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
1730 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1730 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 889.98888888812 m/s
The final result is:
1730 kt → 889.98888888812 m/s
We conclude that 1730 knots is equivalent to 889.98888888812 meters per second:
1730 knots = 889.98888888812 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 0.0011236095332036 × 1730 knots.
Another way is saying that 1730 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0011236095332036 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 seven hundred thirty knots is approximately eight hundred eighty-nine point nine eight nine meters per second:
1730 kt ≅ 889.989 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand seven hundred thirty knots.
