Knot (UK)
kt (UK)
Definition
The UK knot is a variant of the standard knot used in the United Kingdom, representing one UK nautical mile per hour. It differs slightly from the international knot due to the different definition of the nautical mile used in the UK.
History/Origin
The UK knot was developed when the United Kingdom used a slightly different definition of the nautical mile. This created a small difference in the knot measurement, which was standardized for UK maritime and aviation applications.
Current Use
The UK knot is used in the United Kingdom for maritime navigation, aviation, and meteorological applications. It is gradually being replaced by the international knot as the UK adopts international standards, but it is still used in some legacy applications.
