Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:

1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt

To convert 742 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 742 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt

742 m/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 742 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 1442.3326133922 kt

The final result is:

742 m/s → 1442.3326133922 kt

We conclude that 742 meters per second is equivalent to 1442.3326133922 knots:

742 meters per second = 1442.3326133922 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00069332135369811 × 742 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 742 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00069332135369811 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred forty-two meters per second is approximately one thousand four hundred forty-two point three three three knots:

742 m/s ≅ 1442.333 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times seven hundred forty-two meters per second.
