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 500 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 500 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
500 km/h → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 500 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt
V(kt) = 269.97840172831 kt
The final result is:
500 km/h → 269.97840172831 kt
We conclude that 500 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 269.97840172831 knots:
500 kilometers per hour = 269.97840172831 knots
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0037039999999938 × 500 kilometers per hour.
Another way is saying that 500 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0037039999999938 knots.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred kilometers per hour is approximately two hundred sixty-nine point nine seven eight knots:
500 km/h ≅ 269.978 kt
An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times five hundred kilometers per hour.
