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 855 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 855 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
855 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 855 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 1661.9870410382 kt
The final result is:
855 m/s → 1661.9870410382 kt
We conclude that 855 meters per second is equivalent to 1661.9870410382 knots:
855 meters per second = 1661.9870410382 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00060168940870643 × 855 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 855 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00060168940870643 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred fifty-five meters per second is approximately one thousand six hundred sixty-one point nine eight seven knots:
855 m/s ≅ 1661.987 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times eight hundred fifty-five meters per second.
