"Knots" (kt) is a unit of speed commonly used in navigation and aviation. One knot is equal to one nautical mile per hour, where a nautical mile is approximately 1.852 kilometers. Knots are particularly prevalent in marine and aerial navigation due to their practicality for measuring speeds over water or through the air. They provide a convenient measure for understanding and communicating speed in these contexts, including ship speed, aircraft speed, and wind speed.
