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 5552 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 5552 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

5552 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 5552 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 2997.8401727912 kt

The final result is:

5552 km/h → 2997.8401727912 kt

We conclude that 5552 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 2997.8401727912 knots:

5552 kilometers per hour = 2997.8401727912 knots
