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 748 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 748 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

748 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 748 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 384.80444444411 m/s

The final result is:

748 kt → 384.80444444411 m/s

We conclude that 748 knots is equivalent to 384.80444444411 meters per second:

748 knots = 384.80444444411 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 0.002598722583479 × 748 knots.

Another way is saying that 748 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.002598722583479 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-eight knots is approximately three hundred eighty-four point eight zero four meters per second:

748 kt ≅ 384.804 m/s

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