Calculation process of conversion value

1 kilometre per second = (exactly) `(1000) / ((1852/3600))` = 1943.8444924406 knot
1 knot = (exactly) `((1852/3600)) / (1000)` = 0.00051444444444444 kilometre per second
? kilometre per second × `(1000 ("m/s"/"kilometre per second")) / ((1852/3600) ("m/s"/"knot"))` = ? knot

High precision conversion

If conversion between kilometre per second to metre-per-second and metre-per-second to knot is exactly definied, high precision conversion from kilometre per second to knot is enabled.
