Examples

1

A yacht sails at a speed of 15 knots.
Convert this speed from knots to Yard/second.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot is:

Speed(Knot) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from knot to yard/second is:

Speed(Yard/second) = Speed(Knot) × 1.0936132983 / 1.9438444924

Substitution:

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

Speed(Yard/second) = 15 × 1.0936132983 / 1.9438444924

Speed(Yard/second) = 8.439

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 kt is equal to 8.439 yd/s.

The speed is 8.439 yd/s, in yard/second.

2

An aircraft cruises at a speed of 250 knots.
Convert this speed from knots to Yard/second.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot is:

Speed(Knot) = 250

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from knot to yard/second is:

Speed(Yard/second) = Speed(Knot) × 1.0936132983 / 1.9438444924

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Knot) = 250 in the above formula.

Speed(Yard/second) = 250 × 1.0936132983 / 1.9438444924

Speed(Yard/second) = 140.6508

Final Answer:

Therefore, 250 kt is equal to 140.6508 yd/s.

The speed is 140.6508 yd/s, in yard/second.
