Examples

1

A yacht sails at a speed of 15 knots.
Convert this speed from knots to Kilometer/hour.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot is:

Speed(Knot) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from knot to kilometer/hour is:

Speed(Kilometer/hour) = Speed(Knot) × 3.6 / 1.9438444924

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Knot) = 15 in the above formula.

Speed(Kilometer/hour) = 15 × 3.6 / 1.9438444924

Speed(Kilometer/hour) = 27.78

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 kt is equal to 27.78 km/h.

The speed is 27.78 km/h, in kilometer/hour.

2

An aircraft cruises at a speed of 250 knots.
