What Is This Tool?
This unit converter helps you transform angular velocity values from degrees per hour to radians per hour. It is ideal for converting slow rotational measurements into SI-compatible units commonly used in scientific and technical fields.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the angular velocity in degree/hour (°/h) into the input field
- Select degree/hour as the input unit if not preselected
- Choose radian/hour [rad/h] as the output unit
- Click the convert button to see the equivalent radian/hour value
Key Features
- Converts angular velocity between degree/hour and radian/hour units
- Supports applications in astronomy, aerospace, and geodesy
- Provides clear and easy-to-understand conversion results
- Browser-based and easy to use without installation
Examples
- Convert 10 °/h to rad/h: 10 × 0.0174532925 = 0.174532925 rad/h
- Convert 15 °/h to rad/h: 15 × 0.0174532925 = 0.261799388 rad/h
Common Use Cases
- Describing Earth's rotation rate and other planetary rotations
- Specifying telescope or antenna slow tracking and drift rates
- Quantifying low-rate attitude drift for spacecraft and inertial navigation systems
- Monitoring slow rotational movements in laboratory turntables and experimental setups
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure input values represent slow angular velocities with time in hours
- Use radians per hour when working with precise scientific or engineering calculations
- Interpret radian values carefully in contexts where degrees might be more intuitive
- Verify unit consistency when converting for complex time intervals
Limitations
- This conversion assumes angular velocities are slow and time is measured in hours
- Adjustment is necessary for fast angular velocities or different time units
- Radian units can be less intuitive than degrees in some practical scenarios
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why convert from degree/hour to radian/hour?
- Converting to radian/hour facilitates scientific calculations and instrumentation calibration because radians are the standard SI angular unit.
- Can this tool be used for fast angular velocities?
- No, the conversion is intended for slow angular velocities measured over hours; other time units or faster motions require different conversions.
- Is radian/hour always better than degree/hour?
- Not always; radians are standard in scientific contexts, but degrees can be more intuitive for practical everyday interpretations.
Key Terminology
- Degree/hour [°/h]
- A unit measuring angular velocity as the change in angle in degrees per hour.
- Radian/hour [rad/h]
- A unit measuring angular velocity as the change in angle in radians per hour, an SI-derived unit.
- Angular Velocity
- The rate at which an object rotates or changes its angular position with respect to time.
