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 680 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 680 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

680 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 680 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 349.82222222192 m/s

The final result is:

680 kt → 349.82222222192 m/s

We conclude that 680 knots is equivalent to 349.82222222192 meters per second:

680 knots = 349.82222222192 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 0.0028585948418269 × 680 knots.

Another way is saying that 680 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0028585948418269 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 eighty knots is approximately three hundred forty-nine point eight two two meters per second:

680 kt ≅ 349.822 m/s

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