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 324 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 324 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

324 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 324 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 166.67999999986 m/s

The final result is:

324 kt → 166.67999999986 m/s

We conclude that 324 knots is equivalent to 166.67999999986 meters per second:

324 knots = 166.67999999986 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 0.0059995200384021 × 324 knots.

Another way is saying that 324 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0059995200384021 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 twenty-four knots is approximately one hundred sixty-six point six eight meters per second:

324 kt ≅ 166.68 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero six times three hundred twenty-four knots.
