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 37.6 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 37.6 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
37.6 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 37.6 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 19.343111111094 m/s
The final result is:
37.6 kt → 19.343111111094 m/s
We conclude that 37.6 knots is equivalent to 19.343111111094 meters per second:
37.6 knots = 19.343111111094 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 0.051697991820274 × 37.6 knots.
Another way is saying that 37.6 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.051697991820274 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that thirty-seven point six knots is approximately nineteen point three four three meters per second:
37.6 kt ≅ 19.343 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero five two times thirty-seven point six knots.
