Quick answer

  • 1 atomic unit of velocity = 4,252,531.614 knots
  • 1 knot = 2.3515404 × 10-7 atomic units of velocity
  • Formula: kn = a₀Eh/ħ × 4,252,531.61399

1 atomic unit of velocity = 4,252,531.614 knots

How to convert atomic units of velocity to knots

kn = a₀Eh/ħ × 4,252,531.61399

To convert atomic units of velocity to knots, multiply the number of atomic units of velocity by 4,252,531.61399.

Example: 1 a₀Eh/ħ to kn

  1. Start with the value in atomic units of velocity: 1 a₀Eh/ħ.
  2. Multiply by 4,252,531.61399: 1 × 4,252,531.61399 = 4,252,531.614.
  3. Result: 1 atomic unit of velocity = 4,252,531.614 knots.

Going the other way, 1 knot = 2.3515404 × 10-7 atomic units of velocity, so to convert knots back to atomic units of velocity you divide by the same number. See knots to atomic units of velocity.
