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 971 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 971 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

971 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 971 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 524.29805615638 kt

The final result is:

971 km/h → 524.29805615638 kt

We conclude that 971 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 524.29805615638 knots:

971 kilometers per hour = 524.29805615638 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0019073120494304 × 971 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 971 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0019073120494304 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that nine hundred seventy-one kilometers per hour is approximately five hundred twenty-four point two nine eight knots:

971 km/h ≅ 524.298 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times nine hundred seventy-one kilometers per hour.
