No it is not.
nm is the Institute for Standards abbreviation for nanometer.
According to the International Maritime Organization's "GUIDELINES FOR THE PRESENTATION OF NAVIGATION-RELATED SYMBOLS, TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS" (T2-OSS/2.7.1), the abbreviation for the Nautical Mile is NM.
The abbreviation for nautical miles is nm. A nautical mile is 6076.12 feet.
Mi, M or Mls The nautical mile is NM! Have fun learning units! :)
One knot is 1.15mph
A Knot is equal to 1 Nautical Mile per hour. It is a measure of velocity not distance. A knot per hour would then be an acceleration 1 NM/hr/hr. Example: a ship moving at 12 knots accelerating at 1 knot/hour will be moving at 14 knots after two hours elapse.
nm (namometer) to Km-h (kilometer-hours), is that correct? different units, they cannot be converted. It's like converting inches to pounds.
The scientific notation of 65,000 is 6.5x104.

2025 Yards in a Nautical Mile
A nautical mile is a little more than a regular mile. A regular mile is like 5026 feet and a nm is around 6067 feet.
Use this formula: km x 0.539956 = nautical miles
1 nautical mile = 1.85318054 kilometre 170 nm = 315 .041 km (rounded)
The nautical mile is approximately one minute, that is, 1/60 degree.
One nautical mile is equal to 1.151 statute miles. So, 320 nm x 1.151 = 368.32 statute miles.
nautical miles ...
The abbreviation "nm" has several uses :Metric MeasurementThe nm is a nanometer, one-billionth of a meter (1 x 10-9 m).English MeasurementThe usually-capitalized NM means "nautical mile" equal to a minute of latitude or longitude (1/60 of a degree). By definition, it is now 1852 meters or about 6076 feet.Internet ChatBy context, nm can mean "nothing much" or "never mind".Newton metres
1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hour time = distance / speed → time = 150 nm / 31 nm/hr ≈ 14.52 hr ≈ 14 hours, 30 minutes, 58 seconds.
A "knot" is one nautical mile per hour. Divide 820 by 140 and you have it.
Nautical miles are used as a distance measurement both in the air and on the sea, but not so often on the ground. So if "air miles" refers to the statute miles that we use over land, then a nautical mile is about 15% longer. Therefore, to convert one to the other, multiply by 1.15. 1 nm = 1.15 miles 100 nm = 115 miles 20 nm = 23 miles and so on.
