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 1748 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1748 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

1748 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1748 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 899.24888888811 m/s

The final result is:

1748 kt → 899.24888888811 m/s

We conclude that 1748 knots is equivalent to 899.24888888811 meters per second:

1748 knots = 899.24888888811 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 0.0011120391833194 × 1748 knots.

Another way is saying that 1748 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0011120391833194 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 forty-eight knots is approximately eight hundred ninety-nine point two four nine meters per second:

1748 kt ≅ 899.249 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand seven hundred forty-eight knots.
