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 998 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 998 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

998 kt → V(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V(m/s) = 998 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 513.41555555511 m/s

The final result is:

998 kt → 513.41555555511 m/s

We conclude that 998 knots is equivalent to 513.41555555511 meters per second:

998 knots = 513.41555555511 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 0.0019477399723871 × 998 knots.

Another way is saying that 998 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0019477399723871 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 ninety-eight knots is approximately five hundred thirteen point four one six meters per second:

998 kt ≅ 513.416 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred ninety-eight knots.
