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 949 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 949 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

949 kt → V_(km/h)

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

V_(km/h) = 949 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h

V_(km/h) = 1757.5479999971 km/h

The final result is:

949 kt → 1757.5479999971 km/h

We conclude that 949 knots is equivalent to 1757.5479999971 kilometers per hour:

949 knots = 1757.5479999971 kilometers per hour

Alternative conversion
