Examples

1

A fishing boat travels at a speed of 12 knots (UK).
Convert this speed from knots (UK) to Yard/second.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot (uk) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 12

Formula:

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

Speed(Yard/second) = Speed(Knot (UK)) × 1.0936132983 / 1.9426025694

Substitution:

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

Speed(Yard/second) = 12 × 1.0936132983 / 1.9426025694

Speed(Yard/second) = 6.7556

Final Answer:

Therefore, 12 kt (UK) is equal to 6.7556 yd/s.

The speed is 6.7556 yd/s, in yard/second.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The speed in knot (uk) is:

Speed(Knot (UK)) = 30

Formula:

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

Speed(Yard/second) = Speed(Knot (UK)) × 1.0936132983 / 1.9426025694

Substitution:

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

Speed(Yard/second) = 30 × 1.0936132983 / 1.9426025694

Speed(Yard/second) = 16.8889

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 kt (UK) is equal to 16.8889 yd/s.

The speed is 16.8889 yd/s, in yard/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.

Yard/second

The yard per second (yd/s) is a unit of speed that describes how many yards are covered in one second. It is used in contexts such as sports or engineering, where the imperial system is used and quick movements are measured.
