Convert km/h to knots

Speed (in km/h or kph): Speed (in knots):

The calculator allows you to convert kph to knots (or nautical miles). Perform the reverse calculation: convert knots to kph

1 km/h = 0.539957 knots (approximately equal to) 1 knot = 1.852 km/h

Example We are going to convert a speed of 50 km/h in knots. Speed = 50 km/h 1 km/h = 0.539957 knots Speed = 50 km/h = 50 x 0.539957 = 27 knots Km/h to knots chart Convert km/h to knots: 1 km/h = 0.54 knots 10 km/h = 5.4 knots 20 km/h = 10.8 knots 30 km/h = 16.2 knots 40 km/h = 21.6 knots 50 km/h = 27 knots 60 km/h = 32.4 knots 70 km/h = 37.8 knots 80 km/h = 43.2 knots 90 km/h = 48.6 knots 100 km/h = 54 knots The knot is the unit of measurement for boat speed. Knots correspond to the speed of planes and boats. 1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hour = 6076 feet per hour 1 mph = 1 mile per hour = 5280 feet per hour To convert a kilometer per hour measurement to a knot measurement, multiply the speed by 0.539957 (approximately). To go further Knot is defined as one nautical mile per hour and is used to measure speed. In the aviation and nautical worlds, knots are oftentimes used in place of miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (kph) because they are easier to navigate with. A knot is a unit of speed that ties directly into the global latitude and longitude coordinate system. A nautical mile is the measure of distance used for sea and air navigation. It is used to measure the distance traveled through the water. The nautical mile is based on latitude and longitude.
