meters per second to knots
Please provide values below to convert meters per second [m/s] to knots [kt], or change ↔.
meters per second [m/s]
Definition: The meter per second (m/s) is the SI unit of speed, representing the distance traveled in meters per unit of time in seconds.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the International System of Units (SI), derived from the definition of the meter and the second.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used in physics, engineering, and other scientific disciplines to measure velocity and speed.
funfact: One meter per second is roughly equivalent to 3.6 kilometers per hour!
knots [kt]
Definition: A knot (kt) is a unit of speed used in aviation, maritime, and meteorological contexts, equal to one nautical mile per hour.
Historyandorigin: The unit originated with sailors, as it was based on the distance traveled over the earth's surface measured in nautical miles.
CurrentUse: It is used in aviation and maritime navigation to measure speed, and also in meteorology for wind speeds.
funfact: One knot is equal to 1.852 kilometers per hour or 1.15078 miles per hour!

How to Convert meters per second to knots
1 meters per second [m/s] = 1.943844 knots [kt]
1 knots [kt] = 0.5144445748 meters per second [m/s]
we use cross multiplication method
meters per second [m/s] → knots [kt]
1 → 1.943844
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.943844=1*x
by simplifying
x=2.915766
