Degrees Per Second to Revolutions Per Minute Conversion
Enter the frequency in degrees per second below to get the value converted to revolutions per minute.
How to Convert Degrees Per Second to Revolutions Per Minute
To convert a degree per second measurement to a revolution per minute measurement, divide the frequency by the conversion ratio. One revolution per minute is equal to 6 degrees per second, so use this simple formula to convert:
The frequency in revolutions per minute is equal to the degrees per second divided by 6.
Degrees per second and revolutions per minute are both units used to measure frequency. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Degrees Per Second
Degrees per second are a measure of angular frequency, or rotational speed, equal to the change in orientation or angle of an object in degrees per second.
Degrees per second can be abbreviated as °/s; for example, 1 degree per second can be written as 1 °/s.
In formal expressions, the slash, or solidus (/), is used to separate units used to indicate division in an expression.[1]
Revolutions Per Minute
Revolutions per minute are a measure of the number of turns, or revolutions, that occur per minute.
Revolutions per minute can be abbreviated as RPM, and are also sometimes abbreviated as rev/min or r/min. For example, 1 revolution per minute can be written as 1 RPM, 1 rev/min, or 1 r/min.
Revolutions per minute can be expressed using the formula: RPM = RevolutionsTimem
