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 600 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 600 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

600 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 600 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 308.6666666664 m/s

The final result is:

600 kt → 308.6666666664 m/s

We conclude that 600 knots is equivalent to 308.6666666664 meters per second:

600 knots = 308.6666666664 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 0.0032397408207371 × 600 knots.

Another way is saying that 600 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0032397408207371 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six hundred knots is approximately three hundred eight point six six seven meters per second:

600 kt ≅ 308.667 m/s

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