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 428 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 428 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

428 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 428 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 831.9654427653 kt

The final result is:

428 m/s → 831.9654427653 kt

We conclude that 428 meters per second is equivalent to 831.9654427653 knots:

428 meters per second = 831.9654427653 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0012019730010374 × 428 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 428 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012019730010374 knots.

Approximate result

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

428 m/s ≅ 831.965 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times four hundred twenty-eight meters per second.
