What Is This Tool?

This online converter helps transform measurements of angular speed from revolution per second (r/s) to degree per hour (°/h). It is designed to assist users handling rotational velocity data across different temporal scales, particularly when transitioning from fast rotations to slower angular changes.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in revolution/second (r/s) that you want to convert.
  • Select revolution/second as the input unit and degree/hour as the output unit.
  • Click the convert button to obtain the equivalent angular velocity in degree/hour (°/h).

Key Features

  • Converts angular velocity from revolution/second to degree/hour accurately.
  • Supports applications in astronomy, aerospace, robotics, and instrumentation.
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation.

Examples

  • 0.5 r/s equals 648000 °/h after conversion.
  • 2 r/s converts to 2592000 °/h using the conversion rate.
  • Applying the formula: multiply the revolution/second value by 1296000 to get degree/hour.

Common Use Cases

  • Measuring shaft speeds of electric motors or small rotating machines with high temporal resolution.
  • Tracking slow angular movement such as Earth's rotation or telescope pointing errors.
  • Monitoring attitude drift in spacecraft and inertial navigation systems.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure the selected unit matches the angular velocity range to avoid misinterpretation.
  • Use degree/hour units for slow drift or rotation analysis in astronomical and aerospace contexts.
  • Apply the appropriate conversion when switching between high-speed rotations and slow angular rates.

Limitations

  • Converting fast rotations in revolution/second into degree/hour may lead to impractical results for rapid dynamic systems.
  • Select units carefully based on the temporal scale and sensitivity of the measurement to maintain meaningful data.
  • Precision loss can occur when converting very high-speed rotations into slow angular velocity units.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does one revolution/second represent?
It represents one full rotation about an axis every second, measuring the rotational frequency or angular speed.

Why convert from revolution/second to degree/hour?
This conversion is useful for analyzing slow angular rates such as planetary rotations or spacecraft drift that are more practically expressed in degree per hour.

What is the conversion factor between revolution/second and degree/hour?
1 revolution/second equals 1,296,000 degree per hour.

Key Terminology

Revolution/second [r/s]
A unit of angular speed indicating the number of full rotations around an axis performed each second.
Degree/hour [°/h]
A measure of angular velocity defined as the change in angle measured in degrees occurring over one hour.
Angular Velocity
The rate of change of an angle with respect to time, indicating how fast an object rotates or spins.
