Formula & How Speed Converter Works

Mathematical Formula
1 km/h = 0.621371 mph = 0.539957 knots

Speed conversions link road, imperial and nautical units. One km/h is 0.621371 mph and 0.539957 knots, so 100 km/h is 62.1 mph or 54.0 knots. Going the other way, 60 knots is 60 ÷ 0.539957 = 111.1 km/h. One knot is one nautical mile per hour, or 1.852 km/h. Aircraft airspeed is quoted in knots, boats use knots, road speeds in Australia use km/h, and the US uses mph. One metre per second is 3.6 km/h. Use the converter when you compare an aircraft speed, a boat speed and a road speed on the same trip.
