Convert knots (kn) to kilometers per second (km/s) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
To convert 1 knots to kilometers per second, we divide by 1943.85 because one kilometer per second equals exactly 1943.85 knots.
Since there are 1943.85 knots in every kilometer per second, we divide our value by this factor:
So 1 knots = 0.000514 kilometers per second.
To convert knots to kilometers per second, divide the value by 1943.85.
1 kilometer per second = 1943.85 knots
