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 979 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 979 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
979 m/s → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 979 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt
V(kt) = 1903.023758101 kt
The final result is:
979 m/s → 1903.023758101 kt
We conclude that 979 meters per second is equivalent to 1903.023758101 knots:
979 meters per second = 1903.023758101 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.00052547951424311 × 979 meters per second.
Another way is saying that 979 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00052547951424311 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred seventy-nine meters per second is approximately one thousand nine hundred three point zero two four knots:
979 m/s ≅ 1903.024 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero one times nine hundred seventy-nine meters per second.
