About Angular Velocity Conversion
Angular velocity measures how quickly an object rotates or revolves around a center point. It is commonly used in physics, engineering, and mechanics to describe rotational motion.
Common Angular Velocity Conversions
- 1 radian per second (rad/s) = 57.2958 degrees per second (°/s)
- 1 radian per second (rad/s) = 9.5493 RPM (revolutions per minute)
- 1 revolution per minute (RPM) = 0.1047 radians per second (rad/s)
- 1 revolution per minute (RPM) = 6 degrees per second (°/s)
- 1 hertz (Hz) = 6.2832 radians per second (rad/s)
- 1 hertz (Hz) = 360 degrees per second (°/s)
Applications of Angular Velocity
Angular velocity measurements are essential in many areas:
- Mechanical engineering (motor specifications, gear design)
- Physics and dynamics calculations
- Astronomy (planetary rotation and orbital mechanics)
- Robotics and automation
- Vehicle engineering (engine RPM, wheel rotation)
- Aircraft design (propeller and turbine speeds)
Our angular velocity converter provides accurate conversions between all these units, making it easy to translate between different angular velocity measurements for any engineering or scientific application.
