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 317 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 317 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
317 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 317 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 163.07888888875 m/s
The final result is:
317 kt → 163.07888888875 m/s
We conclude that 317 knots is equivalent to 163.07888888875 meters per second:
317 knots = 163.07888888875 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 0.0061320015534457 × 317 knots.
Another way is saying that 317 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0061320015534457 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred seventeen knots is approximately one hundred sixty-three point zero seven nine meters per second:
317 kt ≅ 163.079 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero six times three hundred seventeen knots.
