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 508.3 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 508.3 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
508.3 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 508.3 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 988.05615550841 kt
The final result is:
508.3 m/s → 988.05615550841 kt
We conclude that 508.3 meters per second is equivalent to 988.05615550841 knots:
508.3 meters per second = 988.05615550841 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0010120882243636 × 508.3 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 508.3 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0010120882243636 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred eight point three meters per second is approximately nine hundred eighty-eight point zero five six knots:
508.3 m/s ≅ 988.056 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times five hundred eight point three meters per second.
