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 252 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 252 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

252 m/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 252 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V(kt) = 489.84881209546 kt

The final result is:

252 m/s → 489.84881209546 kt

We conclude that 252 meters per second is equivalent to 489.84881209546 knots:

252 meters per second = 489.84881209546 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0020414462081111 × 252 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 252 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0020414462081111 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two hundred fifty-two meters per second is approximately four hundred eighty-nine point eight four nine knots:

252 m/s ≅ 489.849 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times two hundred fifty-two meters per second.
