What is the Formula to convert Knot (UK) to Mile/second?

The formula to convert given speed from Knot (UK) to Mile/second is:

Speed(Mile/second) = Speed(Knot (UK)) × 0.0006213712 / 1.9426025694

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 mile/second, i.e., Speed(Mile/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 Mile/second.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot (uk) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 12

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from knot (uk) to mile/second is:

Speed(Mile/second) = Speed(Knot (UK)) × 0.0006213712 / 1.9426025694

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Knot (UK)) = 12 in the above formula.

Speed(Mile/second) = 12 × 0.0006213712 / 1.9426025694

Speed(Mile/second) = 0.00383838389

Final Answer:

Therefore, 12 kt (UK) is equal to 0.00383838389 mi/s.

The speed is 0.00383838389 mi/s, in mile/second.

2

A naval ship moves at a speed of 30 knots (UK).
Convert this speed from knots (UK) to Mile/second.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot (uk) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from knot (uk) to mile/second is:

Speed(Mile/second) = Speed(Knot (UK)) × 0.0006213712 / 1.9426025694

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Knot (UK)) = 30 in the above formula.

Speed(Mile/second) = 30 × 0.0006213712 / 1.9426025694

Speed(Mile/second) = 0.00959595972

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 kt (UK) is equal to 0.00959595972 mi/s.

The speed is 0.00959595972 mi/s, in mile/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.

Mile/second

The mile per second (mi/s) is a unit of speed representing the number of miles an object travels in one second. This unit is extremely fast and is generally used in contexts such as space exploration or when describing the speed of meteors or other fast-moving astronomical objects.
