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 510 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 510 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

510 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 510 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 991.36069114556 kt

The final result is:

510 m/s → 991.36069114556 kt

We conclude that 510 meters per second is equivalent to 991.36069114556 knots:

510 meters per second = 991.36069114556 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.001008714596949 × 510 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 510 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.001008714596949 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred ten meters per second is approximately nine hundred ninety-one point three six one knots:

510 m/s ≅ 991.361 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times five hundred ten meters per second.
