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 596.1 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 596.1 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
596.1 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 596.1 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 306.66033333307 m/s
The final result is:
596.1 kt → 306.66033333307 m/s
We conclude that 596.1 knots is equivalent to 306.66033333307 meters per second:
596.1 knots = 306.66033333307 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 0.0032609369106564 × 596.1 knots.
Another way is saying that 596.1 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0032609369106564 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 ninety-six point one knots is approximately three hundred six point six six meters per second:
596.1 kt ≅ 306.66 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero three times five hundred ninety-six point one knots.
