What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms angular velocity values from radian per day (rad/d) to revolution per minute (r/min). It is designed to help users convert slow angular velocities measured over long time periods into rotational speeds suitable for minute-based intervals.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in radian/day that you want to convert
  • Select the source unit as radian/day [rad/d]
  • Choose the target unit as revolution/minute [r/min]
  • Click the convert button to get the result

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity units between radian/day and revolution/minute
  • Provides direct calculation using the exact conversion rate
  • Supports use cases in astronomy, aerospace, and engineering
  • Browser-based and easy to use with clear input and output

Examples

  • 10 rad/day converts to 0.001105243 r/min
  • 100 rad/day converts to 0.01105243 r/min

Common Use Cases

  • Describing slow rotation rates of planets, moons, or asteroids in astronomy
  • Monitoring spacecraft attitude drift or spin rates during long missions
  • Analyzing engine or motor speeds by bridging slow astronomical rotation rates to faster mechanical speeds

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify that your input value is representing slow angular velocity appropriate for radian/day units
  • Be cautious when interpreting very small decimal results due to the difference in time scales
  • Use this converter to link slow rotational phenomena with faster mechanical rotational speeds

Limitations

  • Conversion between radian/day and revolution/minute involves vastly different time scales, causing very small decimal values
  • Limited precision may occur for very small values due to the slow nature of radian/day
  • Care is required when applying results to applications sensitive to unit scale differences

Frequently Asked Questions

What does radian/day measure?
Radian per day measures angular velocity as the angle in radians swept out per day, useful for slow rotational movements observed over 24 hours.

What is revolution per minute used for?
Revolution per minute describes how many full rotations an object completes in one minute, commonly used for engines, motors, and laboratory equipment.

Why convert from radian/day to revolution/minute?
Conversion helps translate slow astronomical or spacecraft rotation rates into faster rotational speeds relevant for mechanical systems and motors.

Key Terminology

Radian/day [rad/d]
A unit of angular velocity measuring radians swept out per day, used for slow rotations or precessions over a 24-hour timescale.
Revolution/minute [r/min]
A unit of rotational speed indicating the number of full turns completed in one minute.
