Mile per hour to Knot

How it is calculated

Each unit is defined via the base unit (meter per second (m/s)). The value is first converted to the base unit, then to the selected unit.

1 mph = 0.44704 m/s

1 kn = 0.514444444444 m/s

1 mph × 0.44704 = 0.44704 m/s

0.44704 m/s ÷ 0.514444444444 = 0.868976241901 kn
