A knot is a non SI unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour. Knot is usually abbreviated kt.
Metre per second (U.S. spelling: meter per second) is an SI derived unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity which specifies both magnitude and a specific direction), defined by distance in metres divided by time in seconds.
One metre per second is roughly the speed of an average person walking.
