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 3309 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 3309 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

3309 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 3309 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 1702.2966666652 m/s

The final result is:

3309 kt → 1702.2966666652 m/s

We conclude that 3309 knots is equivalent to 1702.2966666652 meters per second:

3309 knots = 1702.2966666652 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 0.00058744167193783 × 3309 knots.

Another way is saying that 3309 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00058744167193783 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three thousand three hundred nine knots is approximately one thousand seven hundred two point two nine seven meters per second:

3309 kt ≅ 1702.297 m/s

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