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 1246 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1246 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
1246 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1246 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 640.99777777722 m/s
The final result is:
1246 kt → 640.99777777722 m/s
We conclude that 1246 knots is equivalent to 640.99777777722 meters per second:
1246 knots = 640.99777777722 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 0.0015600678109489 × 1246 knots.
Another way is saying that 1246 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0015600678109489 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand two hundred forty-six knots is approximately six hundred forty point nine nine eight meters per second:
1246 kt ≅ 640.998 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times one thousand two hundred forty-six knots.
