Convert inch / square second to knot / second

Learn how to convert 1 inch / square second to knot / second step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{k n o t}{s e c o n d}) = \frac{50.93}{99.0} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = \frac{50.93}{99.0} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = x \times \frac{50.93}{99.0} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \cdot \frac{50.93}{99.0} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \times \frac{50.93}{99.0} \times (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Conversion Equation

2.54 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times \frac{50.93}{99.0}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{50.93}{99.0} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{99.0}{50.93})

x \times \frac{50.93}{99.0} \times \frac{99.0}{50.93} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{99.0}{50.93}

Cancel

x \times \frac{50.93 \times 99.0}{99.0 \times 50.93} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{99.0}{50.93}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times 99.0}{50.93}

Solve

x

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

Conversion Equation

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