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 18.1 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 18.1 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

18.1 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 18.1 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 35.183585313205 kt

The final result is:

18.1 m/s → 35.183585313205 kt

We conclude that 18.1 meters per second is equivalent to 35.183585313205 knots:

18.1 meters per second = 35.183585313205 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.028422344996906 × 18.1 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 18.1 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.028422344996906 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighteen point one meters per second is approximately thirty-five point one eight four knots:

18.1 m/s ≅ 35.184 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero two eight times eighteen point one meters per second.
