8 Knots to Kilometers per Second
Convert 8 knots (kn) to kilometers per second (km/s) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
kn
km/s
8 kn = 0.004116 km/s
Full precision:0.0041156 km/s
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 8 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:
8 ÷ 1943.85 = 0.004116 kilometers per second
So 8 knots = 0.004116 kilometers per second.
Quick check: 0.004116 × 1943.85 = 8 knots
