What Is This Tool?

This unit converter allows users to transform angular velocity values expressed in degrees per hour to degrees per minute, providing a finer resolution for measuring slow rotational rates.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the angular velocity value in degree/hour [°/h]
  • Select the output unit as degree/minute [°/min]
  • Initiate the conversion to get the angular velocity in degrees per minute
  • Review the converted value for precise measurements at a finer timescale

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity from degree/hour [°/h] to degree/minute [°/min]
  • Ideal for applications in astronomy, aerospace, and slow-motion instrumentation
  • Based on standard angular velocity definitions adhering to SI units
  • Browser-based and easy to operate

Examples

  • Convert 10 °/h: 10 × 0.0166666667 = 0.166666667 °/min
  • Convert 60 °/h: 60 × 0.0166666667 = 1 °/min

Common Use Cases

  • Tracking celestial objects with astronomical telescopes
  • Monitoring attitude drift in spacecraft and gyroscopes
  • Setting pan/tilt speeds for surveillance and time-lapse cameras
  • Calculating slow scanning rotations for radar or antenna systems

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure angular velocity remains steady over the interval for accurate conversion
  • Use this conversion for slow rotational rates to maintain measurement relevance
  • Consider using radians per second for higher angular velocity applications
  • Verify units carefully when applying conversions in precision instrumentation

Limitations

  • Assumes constant angular velocity during the conversion period
  • Not suitable for fast or rapidly changing angular velocities
  • Better suited for slow rates; other units like radian per second may be required for high-speed rotations

Frequently Asked Questions

What does degree/hour [°/h] measure?
Degree/hour [°/h] quantifies angular velocity as the number of degrees rotated per hour.

Why convert from degree/hour to degree/minute?
Conversion to degree/minute provides a finer time resolution which is helpful for precise tracking of slow angular motions.

Is this conversion suitable for fast rotational speeds?
No, this converter is designed for slow rates; fast speeds require other units like radians per second.

Key Terminology

Degree/hour [°/h]
A unit of angular velocity measuring the change in angle in degrees per hour.
Degree/minute [°/min]
A unit of angular velocity representing angular displacement in degrees per minute.
Angular velocity
The rate of change of angular position of an object, commonly measured in degrees per hour or minutes.
