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 42.6 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 42.6 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

42.6 m/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 42.6 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V(kt) = 82.807775378041 kt

The final result is:

42.6 m/s → 82.807775378041 kt

We conclude that 42.6 meters per second is equivalent to 82.807775378041 knots:

42.6 meters per second = 82.807775378041 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0120761606677 × 42.6 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 42.6 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0120761606677 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty-two point six meters per second is approximately eighty-two point eight zero eight knots:

42.6 m/s ≅ 82.808 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero one two times forty-two point six meters per second.
