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 834 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 834 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

834 kt → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 834 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 429.0466666663 m/s

The final result is:

834 kt → 429.0466666663 m/s

We conclude that 834 knots is equivalent to 429.0466666663 meters per second:

834 knots = 429.0466666663 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 0.0023307487918972 × 834 knots.

Another way is saying that 834 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0023307487918972 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred thirty-four knots is approximately four hundred twenty-nine point zero four seven meters per second:

834 kt ≅ 429.047 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times eight hundred thirty-four knots.
