- Why do the Air Force and Navy use NAUTICAL MILES? And What is a KNOT?
Why do the Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard still use nautical miles? And what the heck is a knot?! In this video, I explain what the difference is between a nautical mile and a standard mile - or a statute mile, as it’s technically called. I also explain why pilots and sailors use nautical miles, and what a “knot” is as a measure of speed.

Ma'am, you did a great job with this topic. I will be using your video in my classroom forever more (or until I retire, whichever comes first).
Awesome lol I’m glad it’s helpful!
I do a fair bit of sailing kayaking etc and have been using nautical miles / knots on and off for years, and this is the best explanation anyone has ever done of it. Succinct, comprehensive, and memorable.
Thank you! I've asked so many people and looked up a good number of videos, but this is the only one that has really helped me to understand
That was a great explanation! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Amazing video .THANKS !!!
Something that helps clear up the confusion that NOBODY has is that when she says “minutes” she refers to a clock, a clock is a circle and 60 minutes would take you from the 12 o’clock to the 1 o’clock position, this is used in reference to the earth so you can imagine that the earth is a giant clock and traveling a nautical mile is 1/60th of a minute on a clock
Ms. Noelle, thank you for your excellent and very clear explanation of knots and nautical mile.
Great explanation! Thank you!
Best explanation I’ve seen thank you!
you explained this in a way even a knucklehead like myself can clearly comprehend!
Great video!
Great and clear explanation, thank you!
really informative video, thanks!
You explained this so well!!! I really love the way you teach!!!
I GET IT NOW! Great video :)
Thanks for this info! You’re a wonderful teacher and very beautiful.
Thanks Ash!
Clear explanation and nicely presented. I will look for more from Ashley.
Another great video, learned something new thanks.
Thanks, Robin!
Very clear and concise explanation. Better than any other video I've seen on the subject. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
EXCELLENT PRESENTATION
Instant subscribe, great video!
Your style got my attention enough to learn the mechanics behind the idea !!. good job
Very well done..
Excellent 👏👏👏 Useful.. Congrats 👍
Need more from you officer and thank you for your understanding
Great teacher
Great explanation 👍
Excellent work, Ma'am. Easily comprehencable explanation.
Thank you!! I’ve always wondered the difference
Thank you. 🙏
Great video
Very Interesting!!! Great Job!!
Thank you!!
Your lesson is the best
As a Navy veteran, this is one of the first thing we learn. Once you get to your first duty station, if it’s a ship. Touched on it briefly in boot camp.
Very helpful!
Even from the metric system 👍🏽
Thanks!
Well explained thankyou😅😅😅
Sure thing 😊
OH wow I proud of you, such a great informative about the aviation industry. you never mentioned your Rate and your name.
keep up the good work and study hard the worlds need you.
Great video Ashley....could throw in how many kilometers in a nautical mile too for non US conversion factors too. Awesome!
I love learning from POC content creators. This was such an amazing explanation!
Wow - you arę such a great communicator. You Made this topic Very easy to understand. You should have a online ground School. Thank you.
Wow. You are an excellent communicator.
Thank you! 😊
Nice
Coincidentally, 115 comments precede mine; so, I'm hoping I remember the conversion figure you shared from now on: one nautical mile is approximately 1.15 statute miles.
Cool
Thank you! I was looking this up wondering why European aircraft use knots, wrongly assuming they would be using metric.
I love teaching people military time, I'm so going to enjoy teaching ppl how to give a precise location in nm... right after I get it down 🤣😂🤣
Greenwich was the home of the old royal naval college and Britain ruled the sea when navigation was standardised
Sweet
"All you gotta do is multiply by 1,15. But i dont do miles. I dont care feet,meter,mile how is it still not standardised around the globe. Why use any other speed/time meter then one? Great vid (y).
Multiply by 1.85 to get km
I must have missed this in school...
Just what I wanted to know👍🏼🇺🇸🇺🇦
How can I reach out to you for some great knowledge?
Nautical miles aren't more precise than statute miles. But the math involved in celestial navigation is much simpler than with statute miles.
The video is as beautiful as its creator
You a damn genius type of girl though 💯💯💯
I did ‘knot’ know this.
cool
Here trying to help my kid with his sixth grade flight class.
Could you do a video on what a soldier (male and female) actually wants in a care package or ideas of what to send..
Great idea! I can do that.
Here you go...ua-cam.com/video/ybhBW5zv6CY/v-deo.html
Why do some people spend thousands on an old airplane and knot convert them from mph to kts?
I can't even focus on your teaching, because I got unwanted hackers who have hacked my UA-cam account or coded unwanted sh*t into my UA-cam account and I can't stop them.
still didnt get why its more accurate .. if we are converting it to miles anyway,
and also didnt get how is the earth's curvature considered in using nm?
thanks for the video tho, did anyone understand tho?
My understanding is that for aviation, which is my background. The Knot (nm/h) is better because as you get higher in the atmosphere the circumference is larger so the exact size of the Nm is larger the higher you get
On ground, the speed is relative to land which is fixed /doesn't move and therfore doesn't affect the object speed. From my understanding because water and air are not fixed, ie you could be sailing 30mph against/into a 15 mph current, and therefore your actuall speed will be 15 mph and not 30mph... aviation I think the same applies because air speed around the plane will affect the planes actuall speed. By using knots it takes the variables with the speed of the water/air and gives you an actuall speed you're traveling at.
She’s super military
It hurts my head.
I'm not too good at rocket science Thanks❤🎉😊
? if i step across 50 degrees near the north pole, have i gone 3000 kn??
If you travelled 50 degrees in 1 hour then yes you have. Remember a knot is a Nautical Mile per hour (Nm/h)
Therefore, If you travelled 50 degrees in 1 hour you were travelling at 3000 knots (Nm/h)
Use the radar and check from a river if the height and base of buildings over 30 miles have a difference.
Check top and base of buildings to see if we really have a curve?
The water just have waves that can distort the distance. That's about it.
@@appleyes411 It does. Radar is limited by the hrozion
If my Teacher was a cute as you I would have definitely passed for paying close attention 😊
We miss your videos ...
I'm coming back!
Good video, but a statute mile is not less precise than than a nautical mile. It is arbitrary with a funny history, but it is inaccurate to say it's less precise
Making notes, school never teaches you this because apparently we don't use these measurements. Apparently.
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
No offence, but I'm more confused now than I previously was. lol
Why don’t they say they’re traveling at 20 minutes per hour?
Got it, wait what did you say?
so 6o knots is 69 mph? The conversion has the most satisfying pattern. Taking speeds that are multiples of two, the second numeral will be a multiple of three in a liniar fasion after acounting for the decimal by shifting from the hundredths place. 2 is 2.3, 4 is 4.6, 6 is 6.9...ex. 6.9 is only the appetizer; when we do it in multiples of ten everything is just shifted into whole numbers. 20 is 23, 40 is 46 and at last...60 knots is 69 mph. In conclusion, the earth has all the right curves in all the right places x3
I wonder what a flat earther would say about this. One way to know the earth is round is with a simple triangle. A triangle on a flat surface is 180 degrees. A triangle on a round surface is always more than 180 because the triangle distance is longer because of the curve of the earth.
And why isn't a Knot called a Naut? ...you know, short for Nautical mile
It’s probably why we should run nautical miles on our PT test 😂 be more precise. Thanks.
No explanation as the title says. Why are they “still” using it and not meters?
Because it’s a more accurate measurement that takes into account the curvature of the Earth 🙂
Oh so that's what it is. I still dont get it in one go i may watch it again. By the way you're gorgeous
Your video is .13 knots speed 😌
How come engineers making bridges and pavements don't use it? Is the Earth just flat?
Uh, no. The earth is not flat.
You forget that nobody uses miles anymore, so why convert knots to obsolete miles. Let's all hope the world goes completely metric soon. never used knots at sea or air, kilometres all the way.
You've never used knots in the air? I assume you're not a pilot, but pilots have to use knots for many reasons.
@@lincolncottingham2432 Actually building my first helicopter, speed is in km/h. The international aviation board recommends all aircraft go metric. Most planes are metric except the cheaper quality US planes.
The explanation is not clear.
Smart intelligent woman easy to wife
thank jesus earth is biblically and observably flat.
Nope, it's not. Nautical mile is based on the fact the Earth is a sphere.
What is the distance in between knots on the rope? How did they come up with it?
Are these units universal or is there a metric system equivalent?
Why are her nostrils larger than her eyeballs?
The better to smell you with, my dear… 🥸
