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 820 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 820 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
820 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 820 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 421.84444444408 m/s
The final result is:
820 kt → 421.84444444408 m/s
We conclude that 820 knots is equivalent to 421.84444444408 meters per second:
820 knots = 421.84444444408 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 0.002370542063954 × 820 knots.
Another way is saying that 820 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.002370542063954 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred twenty knots is approximately four hundred twenty-one point eight four four meters per second:
820 kt ≅ 421.844 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times eight hundred twenty knots.
