Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers per hour to knots is 0.53995680345662, which means that 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.53995680345662 knots:

1 km/h = 0.53995680345662 kt

To convert 494 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 494 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from kilometers per hour to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km/h → 0.53995680345662 kt

494 km/h → V(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V(kt) = 494 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V(kt) = 266.73866090757 kt

The final result is:

494 km/h → 266.73866090757 kt

We conclude that 494 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 266.73866090757 knots:

494 kilometers per hour = 266.73866090757 knots
