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 940 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 940 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
940 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 940 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 483.57777777736 m/s
The final result is:
940 kt → 483.57777777736 m/s
We conclude that 940 knots is equivalent to 483.57777777736 meters per second:
940 knots = 483.57777777736 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 0.0020679196728109 × 940 knots.
Another way is saying that 940 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0020679196728109 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred forty knots is approximately four hundred eighty-three point five seven eight meters per second:
940 kt ≅ 483.578 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred forty knots.
