What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms angular velocity measurements from degree per minute, indicating slow angular displacements, into revolution per second, which measures the number of full rotations per second, aiding in understanding rotational speeds in various technical contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the angular velocity value in degree/minute [°/min]
  • Select the target unit as revolution/second [r/s]
  • Use the provided conversion rate: multiply by 0.0000462963
  • View the result expressed in revolution per second

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity from degree/minute [°/min] to revolution/second [r/s]
  • Provides clear conversion formula and practical examples
  • Supports understanding of rotational frequencies for engineering and scientific applications
  • Browser-based and easy to use for quick calculations

Examples

  • Convert 10 °/min: 10 × 0.0000462963 = 0.000462963 r/s
  • Convert 100 °/min: 100 × 0.0000462963 = 0.00462963 r/s

Common Use Cases

  • Astronomical telescope tracking and slew rate calculations
  • Adjusting pan/tilt speeds in surveillance or time-lapse cameras
  • Determining mechanical scanning rates for radar and antenna systems
  • Specifying and testing shaft speeds of electric motors and small rotating machinery
  • Describing spin rates of devices like optical discs and turbomachinery

Tips & Best Practices

  • Choose units appropriate to the precision needed for your application
  • Use this conversion for interpreting slow angular displacements in terms of rotational frequency
  • Be aware of unit context since degree/minute and revolution/second measure angular velocity differently
  • Apply the conversion carefully when working with very low angular velocities requiring precision

Limitations

  • Degree/minute measures slow angular rates; converted revolution/second values may be very small
  • High precision instrumentation might be necessary for accurately measuring low values
  • Units are not SI coherent; degree/minute relates to angular displacement over time while revolution/second relates to rotation frequency
  • Contextual appropriateness of units should be considered when choosing this conversion

Frequently Asked Questions

What does degree per minute measure?
Degree per minute quantifies how many degrees an object rotates in one minute, representing slow angular velocities.

How is revolution per second different from degree per minute?
Revolution per second measures the number of complete rotations an object makes each second, relating directly to rotational frequency unlike degree per minute which measures angular displacement.

When should I convert degree/minute to revolution/second?
Conversion is useful when translating slow angular velocities to rotational frequency terms relevant for machinery control and scientific instrument analysis.

Key Terminology

Degree per minute [°/min]
A unit of angular velocity indicating one degree of rotation per minute, commonly used for slow rotational movements.
Revolution per second [r/s]
A unit measuring how many full rotations an object completes each second, directly related to rotational frequency.
