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 360 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 360 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

360 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 360 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 185.19999999984 m/s

The final result is:

360 kt → 185.19999999984 m/s

We conclude that 360 knots is equivalent to 185.19999999984 meters per second:

360 knots = 185.19999999984 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 0.0053995680345619 × 360 knots.

Another way is saying that 360 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0053995680345619 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 sixty knots is approximately one hundred eighty-five point two meters per second:

360 kt ≅ 185.2 m/s

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