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 504 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 504 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

504 kt → V(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V(m/s) = 504 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 259.27999999978 m/s

The final result is:

504 kt → 259.27999999978 m/s

We conclude that 504 knots is equivalent to 259.27999999978 meters per second:

504 knots = 259.27999999978 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 0.0038568343104014 × 504 knots.

Another way is saying that 504 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0038568343104014 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

504 kt ≅ 259.28 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero four times five hundred four knots.
