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 449 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 449 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
449 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 449 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 230.98555555536 m/s
The final result is:
449 kt → 230.98555555536 m/s
We conclude that 449 knots is equivalent to 230.98555555536 meters per second:
449 knots = 230.98555555536 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 0.004329275038847 × 449 knots.
Another way is saying that 449 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.004329275038847 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four hundred forty-nine knots is approximately two hundred thirty point nine eight six meters per second:
449 kt ≅ 230.986 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero four times four hundred forty-nine knots.
