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 1880 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1880 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

1880 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1880 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 967.15555555472 m/s

The final result is:

1880 kt → 967.15555555472 m/s

We conclude that 1880 knots is equivalent to 967.15555555472 meters per second:

1880 knots = 967.15555555472 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 0.0010339598364055 × 1880 knots.

Another way is saying that 1880 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0010339598364055 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 eighty knots is approximately nine hundred sixty-seven point one five six meters per second:

1880 kt ≅ 967.156 m/s

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