How to use this Knot (UK) to Kilometer/second Converter 🤔
Follow these steps to convert given speed from the units of Knot (UK) to the units of Kilometer/second.
Enter the input Knot (UK) value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Knot (UK) into Kilometer/second in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Kilometer/second label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Kilometer/second value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Kilometer/second value using the Copy button.
To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
What is the Formula to convert Knot (UK) to Kilometer/second?
The formula to convert given speed from Knot (UK) to Kilometer/second is:
Substitute the given value of speed in knot (uk), i.e., Speed(Knot (UK)) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the speed in kilometer/second, i.e., Speed(Kilometer/second).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
A fishing boat travels at a speed of 12 knots (UK). Convert this speed from knots (UK) to Kilometer/second.
Answer:
Given:
The speed in knot (uk) is:
Speed(Knot (UK)) = 12
Formula:
The formula to convert speed from knot (uk) to kilometer/second is:
Substitute given weight Speed(Knot (UK)) = 30 in the above formula.
Speed(Kilometer/second) = 30 / 1942.6025694
Speed(Kilometer/second) = 0.0154432
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 kt (UK) is equal to 0.0154432 km/s.
The speed is 0.0154432 km/s, in kilometer/second.

Knot (UK)
The knot (UK) is the British version of the knot, used similarly to the international knot to measure speed at sea or in the air. It represents one nautical mile per hour, and while the definition is consistent with the international version, it is sometimes distinguished in historical or traditional contexts.
Kilometer/second
The kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many kilometers an object travels in one second. This unit is often used in astronomy and space science to describe the velocities of celestial bodies and spacecraft, as these speeds are far beyond those encountered in everyday life.
