knot_uk to light velocity Converter

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from knot (uk) to velocity of light (in vacuum) is:

Speed_{(velocity of light (in vacuum))} = Speed_{(knot (uk))} × 3.335640951e-9 / 1.9426025694

Problem at hand:

We need to convert given speed of 1 knot (uk) to velocity of light (in vacuum).

Given:

The given speed value is

Speed_{(Knot (UK))} = 1

Substitution:

Substitute Speed_{(knot (uk))} = 1 in the conversion formula.

Speed_{(velocity of light (in vacuum))} = Speed_{(knot (uk))} × 3.335640951e-9 / 1.9426025694

Speed_{(velocity of light (in vacuum))} = 1 × 3.335640951e-9 / 1.9426025694

Simplification:

Solving the right-hand side value.

Speed_{(Velocity of Light (in vacuum))} = 1.72e-9

Conclusion:

Therefore, given speed of 1 knot (uk) is equal to 1.72e-9 velocity of light (in vacuum).
