Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to kilometers per hour is 1.8519999999969, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.8519999999969 kilometers per hour:

1 kt = 1.8519999999969 km/h

To convert 1562 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 1562 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.8519999999969 km/h

1562 kt → V_(km/h)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:

V_(km/h) = 1562 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h

V_(km/h) = 2892.8239999952 km/h

The final result is:

1562 kt → 2892.8239999952 km/h

We conclude that 1562 knots is equivalent to 2892.8239999952 kilometers per hour:

1562 knots = 2892.8239999952 kilometers per hour
