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 766 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 766 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

766 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 766 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 394.0644444441 m/s

The final result is:

766 kt → 394.0644444441 m/s

We conclude that 766 knots is equivalent to 394.0644444441 meters per second:

766 knots = 394.0644444441 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 0.0025376559953555 × 766 knots.

Another way is saying that 766 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0025376559953555 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 sixty-six knots is approximately three hundred ninety-four point zero six four meters per second:

766 kt ≅ 394.064 m/s

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