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 637 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 637 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

637 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 637 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 327.70111111083 m/s

The final result is:

637 kt → 327.70111111083 m/s

We conclude that 637 knots is equivalent to 327.70111111083 meters per second:

637 knots = 327.70111111083 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 0.0030515612126252 × 637 knots.

Another way is saying that 637 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0030515612126252 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 thirty-seven knots is approximately three hundred twenty-seven point seven zero one meters per second:

637 kt ≅ 327.701 m/s

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