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 744 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 744 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

744 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 744 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 382.74666666634 m/s

The final result is:

744 kt → 382.74666666634 m/s

We conclude that 744 knots is equivalent to 382.74666666634 meters per second:

744 knots = 382.74666666634 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 0.0026126942102719 × 744 knots.

Another way is saying that 744 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0026126942102719 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

744 kt ≅ 382.747 m/s

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