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 638 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 638 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
638 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 638 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 1240.1727861782 kt
The final result is:
638 m/s → 1240.1727861782 kt
We conclude that 638 meters per second is equivalent to 1240.1727861782 knots:
638 meters per second = 1240.1727861782 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00080633925461442 × 638 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 638 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00080633925461442 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six hundred thirty-eight meters per second is approximately one thousand two hundred forty point one seven three knots:
638 m/s ≅ 1240.173 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times six hundred thirty-eight meters per second.
