Convert inch / (hour • second) to knot / hour

Learn how to convert 1 inch / (hour • second) to knot / hour step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{i n c h}{h o u r \times s e c o n d}) = x (\frac{k n o t}{h o u r})

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{i n c h}{h o u r \times s e c o n d}) = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{k n o t}{h o u r}) = \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{5}} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{5}} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{i n c h}{h o u r \times s e c o n d}) = x (\frac{k n o t}{h o u r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{5}} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \cdot \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{5}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{5}} \times (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} = x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{5}}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

\frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} = x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times {10^{5}}^{10^{2}}}

Simplify

\frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6} = x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{2}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{2}} = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{3.564 \times 10^{2}}{50.93})

x \times \frac{50.93}{3.564 \times 10^{2}} \times \frac{3.564 \times 10^{2}}{50.93} = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.6} \times \frac{3.564 \times 10^{2}}{50.93}

Cancel

x \times \frac{50.93 \times 3.564 \times 10^{2}}{3.564 \times 10^{2} \times 50.93} = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times 3.564 \times 10^{2}}{3.6 \times 50.93}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.54 \times 3.564}{3.6 \times 50.93}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0493736501 \approx 4.9374 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{i n c h}{h o u r \times s e c o n d}) \approx 4.9374 \times 10^{- 2} (\frac{k n o t}{h o u r})
