Answer 1

The answer is: The best estimate for the wind speed is 47.15 - 54.05 miles/hour.

The knot is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour, approximately 1.15 mph.

The ISO standard symbol for the knot is kn.

v(wind) = 41-47 kn; speed of strong gale.

v(wind) = 41 · 1.15 mph.

v(wind) = 47.15 mph.

v(wind) = 47 · 1.15 mph.

v(wind) = 54.05 mph.
