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 270 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 270 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

270 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 270 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 524.83801295942 kt

The final result is:

270 m/s → 524.83801295942 kt

We conclude that 270 meters per second is equivalent to 524.83801295942 knots:

270 meters per second = 524.83801295942 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.001905349794237 × 270 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 270 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.001905349794237 knots.

Approximate result

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

270 m/s ≅ 524.838 kt

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