Knot to Gms converter (kn to Gms)

Conversion Formula

1 kn = 5.14e-10 Gms

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Knot = 0.514444 meters per second
   1 Gigameter per second = 1,000,000,000 meters per second
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 kn = (0.514444 m/s) / (1,000,000,000 m/s/Gms) = 5.14e-10 Gms
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in kn by 5.14e-10 to get the equivalent in Gms

Example Conversion

Convert 5 kn to Gms:

5 kn × 5.14e-10 = 2.57e-9 Gms
