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 1616 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 1616 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
1616 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 1616 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 831.3422222215 m/s
The final result is:
1616 kt → 831.3422222215 m/s
We conclude that 1616 knots is equivalent to 831.3422222215 meters per second:
1616 knots = 831.3422222215 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 0.0012028740671054 × 1616 knots.
Another way is saying that 1616 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0012028740671054 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 six hundred sixteen knots is approximately eight hundred thirty-one point three four two meters per second:
1616 kt ≅ 831.342 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times one thousand six hundred sixteen knots.
