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 497.3 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 497.3 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

497.3 m/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 497.3 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V(kt) = 966.67386609155 kt

The final result is:

497.3 m/s → 966.67386609155 kt

We conclude that 497.3 meters per second is equivalent to 966.67386609155 knots:

497.3 meters per second = 966.67386609155 knots
