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 563 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 563 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
563 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 563 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 289.63222222197 m/s
The final result is:
563 kt → 289.63222222197 m/s
We conclude that 563 knots is equivalent to 289.63222222197 meters per second:
563 knots = 289.63222222197 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 0.0034526545158833 × 563 knots.
Another way is saying that 563 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0034526545158833 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 sixty-three knots is approximately two hundred eighty-nine point six three two meters per second:
563 kt ≅ 289.632 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero three times five hundred sixty-three knots.
