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 309 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 309 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
309 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 309 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 158.9633333332 m/s
The final result is:
309 kt → 158.9633333332 m/s
We conclude that 309 knots is equivalent to 158.9633333332 meters per second:
309 knots = 158.9633333332 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 0.0062907588752177 × 309 knots.
Another way is saying that 309 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0062907588752177 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred nine knots is approximately one hundred fifty-eight point nine six three meters per second:
309 kt ≅ 158.963 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero six times three hundred nine knots.
