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 1953 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1953 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

1953 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 1953 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 1004.7099999991 m/s

The final result is:

1953 kt → 1004.7099999991 m/s

We conclude that 1953 knots is equivalent to 1004.7099999991 meters per second:

1953 knots = 1004.7099999991 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 0.00099531208010358 × 1953 knots.

Another way is saying that 1953 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00099531208010358 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 fifty-three knots is approximately one thousand four point seven one meters per second:

1953 kt ≅ 1004.71 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand nine hundred fifty-three knots.
