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 1840 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1840 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

1840 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1840 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 946.57777777696 m/s

The final result is:

1840 kt → 946.57777777696 m/s

We conclude that 1840 knots is equivalent to 946.57777777696 meters per second:

1840 knots = 946.57777777696 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 0.0010564372241534 × 1840 knots.

Another way is saying that 1840 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0010564372241534 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 eight hundred forty knots is approximately nine hundred forty-six point five seven eight meters per second:

1840 kt ≅ 946.578 m/s

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