the correct answer is True.
Sort of, one knot is another way of saying one nautical mile per hour
yes
it is true
Cable's Length (distance): Tenth of a nautical mile (approx 101 fathoms).
One knot is equal to one 'nautical' mile per hour. (A British nautical mile is equal to 6,080 feet, an International nautical mile is 1,852 meters.) It is also 1.151 miles per hour.
A "Knot" is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour. Traditionally, one nautical mile is equal to one minute of latitude on the Earth's surface. From Wikipedia: the international standard is 1 nautical mile = 1,852 metres exactly.
The nautical mile is used in sea-going and aviation navigation, as well as in regard to international treaties due to its convenient relation to the longitudinal system for plotting geographic locations on the globe. One nautical mile is approximately equal to one minute in longitude on any meridian latitudinal line. One nautical mile is equal to 1852 meters. One nautical mile is equal to approximately 1.15 statute miles. This is also the purpose of the unit of speed measurement the "knot" as one knot is equal to 1.15 miles per hour, thus the knot is a measurement of nautical miles per hour.
One knot is equal to 1 nautical mile per hour. So for 535 nautical miles at 6 knots, 535 nautical miles/6 knots=535 nautical miles/6 nautical miles per hour=535/6 hours which is about 89.2 hours (89 hours and 10 minutes).
very true!!!!!
true
It need not be true if 32.2 ft per hour is the average velocity.
1 knot is 1 nautical mile per hour, but the words knot and nautical mile are not always interchangeable in sentences (that is, to say something like "he is 1 knot to the north" would not be grammatically correct. Instead you should say "he is 1 nautical mile to the north", just as it is not truly correct to say "The wind speed was 30 nautical miles per hour". In this case you should say "The wind speed was 30 knots").
