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 958 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 958 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
958 kt → V(m/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:
V(m/s) = 958 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s
V(m/s) = 492.83777777735 m/s
The final result is:
958 kt → 492.83777777735 m/s
We conclude that 958 knots is equivalent to 492.83777777735 meters per second:
958 knots = 492.83777777735 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 0.0020290652321945 × 958 knots.
Another way is saying that 958 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0020290652321945 meters per second.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred fifty-eight knots is approximately four hundred ninety-two point eight three eight meters per second:
958 kt ≅ 492.838 m/s
An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred fifty-eight knots.
