What Is This Tool?

This tool helps convert angular velocity values from revolution per second (r/s) to degree per minute (°/min). It is designed for users who need to translate fast rotational speeds into slower angular velocity units for applications like precision control and tracking.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in revolution per second you wish to convert
  • Choose the from-unit as revolution/second [r/s]
  • Select the to-unit as degree/minute [°/min]
  • Initiate the conversion to get the result in degree per minute

Key Features

  • Converts angular speed from revolution per second to degree per minute accurately
  • Supports measurements important in mechanical engineering, astronomy, and instrumentation
  • Provides clear examples to illustrate conversion
  • Browser-based and simple to use without complicated inputs

Examples

  • Convert 0.5 revolution per second to degree per minute: 0.5 × 21600 = 10800 °/min
  • Convert 2 revolutions per second to degree per minute: 2 × 21600 = 43200 °/min

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying shaft speeds of electric motors and rotating machinery
  • Tracking angular velocity for telescope slew rates in astronomy
  • Controlling pan/tilt speeds of surveillance or time-lapse cameras
  • Measuring mechanical scanning rates for radar and antenna systems

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify the context of rotation speed to select appropriate units for interpretation
  • Use this conversion to relate fast rotations to slower, more interpretable angular velocities
  • Apply conversions carefully when working with very slow or very fast angular motions to minimize rounding errors

Limitations

  • Conversion does not alter physical rotational behavior; units differ in scale suitability
  • Revolution/second is better for fast rotations; degree/minute suits slower angular velocity contexts
  • Conversion precision may be affected by rounding for extreme speed values

Frequently Asked Questions

What does revolution per second measure?
It measures angular speed as the number of full rotations an object makes each second, representing fast rotational rates.

When should I use degree per minute instead of revolution per second?
Degree per minute is often used for slower, precise angular motions such as telescope tracking and camera panning.

What is the conversion rate between revolution per second and degree per minute?
1 revolution per second equals 21,600 degrees per minute.

Key Terminology

Revolution/second [r/s]
A unit of angular speed indicating the number of complete rotations per second around an axis.
Degree/minute [°/min]
A unit of angular velocity representing one degree of rotation per minute, used for slower angular speeds.
Angular velocity
The rate at which an object rotates or changes its angular position over time.
