Q: What is the name for a "nautical mile"?
A: Uhh - you might want to think a bit longer.....any clue....alright, its.. a "nautical mile". A nautical mile is roughly equivalent to 1.15 statute miles.
One nautical mile = 6080 feet.6080 x 0.30479947 metres = 1853.1808 metres = 1.8532 kilometres (rounded).
One sea mile is equivalent to approximately 1.852 kilometers.
There are 6,082 feet in one nautical mile !
1 nautical mile = 1.85200 kilometers
One nautical mile is the equivalent of roughly 2,025 yards.
1.15077945 miles
There can be no equivalence. A kilometre per hour is a measure of speed (or velocity) while a nautical mile is a measure of distance. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
5280 feet in one Statute Mile 6080 feet in UK Nautical Mile 6076.12 feet in one Intl Nautical Mile
I got to this answer after checking in Wikipedia. One nautical mile is equal to 1852 metres Also, 1609.344 metres make one mile, THEREFORE, 1 nautical mile = 1.1507 miles
6076.11549 ft Because a nautical mile is defined as 1852 metres a hour sumbit?
6,076.12 feet in one nautical mile.
A nautical mile is equivalent to 1,000 meters, which is approximately 0.53996 statute miles. In terms of cables, one nautical mile is equal to 10 cables. Thus, there are 10 cables in a nautical mile.
