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 488.2 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 488.2 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
488.2 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 488.2 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 948.98488121032 kt
The final result is:
488.2 m/s → 948.98488121032 kt
We conclude that 488.2 meters per second is equivalent to 948.98488121032 knots:
488.2 meters per second = 948.98488121032 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0010537575674805 × 488.2 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 488.2 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0010537575674805 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four hundred eighty-eight point two meters per second is approximately nine hundred forty-eight point nine eight five knots:
488.2 m/s ≅ 948.985 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times four hundred eighty-eight point two meters per second.
