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 3420 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 3420 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

3420 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3420 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 6647.9481641526 kt

The final result is:

3420 m/s → 6647.9481641526 kt

We conclude that 3420 meters per second is equivalent to 6647.9481641526 knots:

3420 meters per second = 6647.9481641526 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00015042235217661 × 3420 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 3420 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00015042235217661 knots.

Approximate result

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

3420 m/s ≅ 6647.948 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times three thousand four hundred twenty meters per second.
