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 997.2 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 997.2 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

997.2 m/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 997.2 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V(kt) = 1938.4017278634 kt

The final result is:

997.2 m/s → 1938.4017278634 kt

We conclude that 997.2 meters per second is equivalent to 1938.4017278634 knots:

997.2 meters per second = 1938.4017278634 knots

Alternative conversion
