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 9800 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 9800 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

9800 m/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 9800 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 19049.676025934 kt

The final result is:

9800 m/s → 19049.676025934 kt

We conclude that 9800 meters per second is equivalent to 19049.676025934 knots:

9800 meters per second = 19049.676025934 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 5.2494331065714E-5 × 9800 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 9800 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 5.2494331065714E-5 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine thousand eight hundred meters per second is approximately nineteen thousand forty-nine point six seven six knots:

9800 m/s ≅ 19049.676 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero times nine thousand eight hundred meters per second.
