48 Knots to Kilometers per Second
Convert 48 knots (kn) to kilometers per second (km/s) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
kn
km/s
48 kn = 0.024693 km/s
Full precision:0.024693 km/s
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 48 knots to kilometers per second, we divide by 1943.85 because one kilometer per second equals exactly 1943.85 knots.
1 kilometer per second = 1943.85 knots
Since there are 1943.85 knots in every kilometer per second, we divide our value by this factor:
48 ÷ 1943.85 = 0.024693 kilometers per second
So 48 knots = 0.024693 kilometers per second.
Quick check: 0.024693 × 1943.85 = 48 knots
