Examples
- 2 rad/h converts to approximately 114.59 °/h (2 × 57.2957795131)
- 0.5 rad/h converts to about 28.65 °/h (0.5 × 57.2957795131)
Common Use Cases
- Expressing planetary or Earth rotation rates measured in angular velocity
- Specifying slow scan or slew rates for telescopes, antenna rotators, or satellite pointing devices
- Quantifying low-rate attitude drift of spacecraft, gyroscopes, and inertial navigation systems
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure measurements represent continuous rotation for accurate conversion
