Knots: A Unit of Measurement for Speed

A knot is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour (approximately 1.852 kilometers per hour or 1.15078 miles per hour). knots are frequently used in navigation and aviation.

The formal definition of a knot is the speed at which one nautical mile is traveled in one hour.

Conversions to Other Units of Measurement:

Kilometers per Hour (km/h): To convert knots to kilometers per hour, multiply the speed in knots by approximately 1.852. For example, 1 knot is equal to approximately 1.852 kilometers per hour.
Miles per Hour (mph): To convert knots to miles per hour, multiply the speed in knots by approximately 1.15078. For example, 1 knot is equal to approximately 1.15078 miles per hour.
Meters per Second (m/s): To convert knots to meters per second, multiply the speed in knots by approximately 0.514444. For example, 1 knot is equal to approximately 0.514444 meters per second.
Feet per Second (ft/s): To convert knots to feet per second, multiply the speed in knots by approximately 1.68781. For example, 1 knot is equal to approximately 1.68781 feet per second.
Beaufort Scale: The Beaufort scale is a measure of wind force based on observed sea conditions. It ranges from 0 (calm) to 12 (hurricane force). Knots are often used in conjunction with the Beaufort scale to estimate wind speeds.
