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 686 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 686 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
686 kt → V(km/h)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:
V(km/h) = 686 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h
V(km/h) = 1270.4719999979 km/h
The final result is:
686 kt → 1270.4719999979 km/h
We conclude that 686 knots is equivalent to 1270.4719999979 kilometers per hour:
686 knots = 1270.4719999979 kilometers per hour
Alternative conversion
