At an acceleration of 1 g (approximately 9.81 m/s²), the speed after 1 hour can be calculated using the formula ( v = at ). After 1 hour (3600 seconds), the speed would be ( v = 9.81 , \text{m/s²} \times 3600 , \text{s} ), which equals about 35,280 m/s or approximately 127,008 km/h. This is an ideal scenario and does not account for factors such as air resistance or relativistic effects.

1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hourtime = distance ÷ speed= 2110 nautical miles / 10 nautical miles/hour= 211 hours= 8 days 19 hours.As 1 knot is 1 nautical mile per hour: a unit of speed, 1 knot per hour would be a rate of change of speed, ie an acceleration.
Suppose you accelerate in your car from stopped to 50 km.hr-1. When you were stopped your instantaneous speed was zero. At the end of the period of acceleration your instantaneous speed was 50 km.hr-1. If your rate of acceleration was constant then your average speed was 25 km.hr-1.
If starting from rest, Distance = 1/2 (acceleration) x (time)2 . Otherwise, Distance = 1/2 (initial speed + final speed) x (time)
Average acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) = (60 - 0) / (2.1) = 28.571 miles per hour per second, or 41.905 feet per second2 Using: (1 mile / hour - second) x (5,280- ft / mile) / (3,600 second / hour) = 1.4666 ft/sec2
The average speed is 110 km per hour.
