Revolutions per minute to Revolutions per second
Convert revolutions per minute to revolutions per second (rpm to rev/s). 1 rpm = 0.0166666666667 rev/s. Use the calculator, formula and conversion table.
How to convert revolutions per minute to revolutions per second
Multiply the amount in revolutions per minute by 0.0166666666667 to get revolutions per second. The displayed factor and results are rounded to 12 significant digits.
rev/s = rpm × 0.0166666666667Worked example
1 rpm = 0.0166666666667 rev/s. Change the amount in the calculator above to use your own value.
Units and assumptions
Uses radians per second. One complete revolution is 2π radians or 360 degrees. This converts angular velocity, rather than treating a radian as a whole cycle. Negative values retain the direction of rotation. Values are rounded to 12 significant figures for display.
Calculator results use floating-point arithmetic and are rounded for display. The reference table below uses up to 12 significant digits.
