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 953.9 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 953.9 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
953.9 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 953.9 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 490.72855555513 m/s
The final result is:
953.9 kt → 490.72855555513 m/s
We conclude that 953.9 knots is equivalent to 490.72855555513 meters per second:
953.9 knots = 490.72855555513 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 0.0020377864476803 × 953.9 knots.
Another way is saying that 953.9 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0020377864476803 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 fifty-three point nine knots is approximately four hundred ninety point seven two nine meters per second:
953.9 kt ≅ 490.729 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred fifty-three point nine knots.
