Converting units of measurement
The most commonly used units can be converted with the markers on the calculator. The following table shows conversion factors for the most important units.
Distances
NM = Nautical Mile (Statuate Mile)
1 NM = 1,852 km = 1,15 SM = 6076 feet
mile = Statuate Mile
1 mile = 1,609 km = 0,87 NM (Nautical Mile) = 5280 feet
m = Metre
1 m = 3,28 feet = 1,09 yd
ft = Feet
1 foot = 0,30 m = 0,33 yd
yd = Yard
1 yd = 0,91 m = 3 feet
Speeds
kt = Knot
1 kt = 0,51 m/s = 1,852 km/h = 1,15 MPH
MPH = Miles per hour
M PH = 1,609 km/h = 0,87 kt
km/h = Kilometres per hour
1 km/h = 0,540 kt = 0,62 MPH
feet/min = Feet per minute
1 feet/min = 0,018 km/h = 0,005 m/s
m/s = Metres per second
1 m/s = 3,6 km/h = 1,94 kt
Volume
Litre
1 LITRE= 0,26 US GAL = 0,22 IMP GAL
US GAL = US Gallon
1 US GAL = 0,83 IMP GAL = 3,79 LITRE
IMP GAL = Imperial Gallon
1 IMP GAL = 1,20 US GAL = 4,55 LITRE
Mass
kg = Kilogramm
1 kg = 2,2 lb
lb Pound = Pound (Imperial pound)
1 lb = 0,45 kg
