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 1948 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1948 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
1948 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1948 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 1002.1377777769 m/s
The final result is:
1948 kt → 1002.1377777769 m/s
We conclude that 1948 knots is equivalent to 1002.1377777769 meters per second:
1948 knots = 1002.1377777769 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 0.00099786678256791 × 1948 knots.
Another way is saying that 1948 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00099786678256791 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 nine hundred forty-eight knots is approximately one thousand two point one three eight meters per second:
1948 kt ≅ 1002.138 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand nine hundred forty-eight knots.
