How to Convert Degree/minute to Radian/minute

Converting Degree/minute (°/min) to Radian/minute (rad/min) is a core calculation in Angular Velocity, which measures the rotational speed and rate of angular displacement per unit of time. Because Radian/minute is a broader physical scale than Degree/minute, converting from °/min to rad/min condenses the numerical figure. It takes 57.29578 Degree/minute to equal a single Radian/minute (1 °/min = 0.0174533 rad/min). To convert any quantity, multiply by 0.0174533 (or divide by 57.29578).

Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (radian per second (rad/s)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)
Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)
1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 °/min = 0.000290888 radian per second (rad/s)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 rad/min = 0.0166667 radian per second (rad/s)
Step-by-step substitution for Degree/minute → Radian/minute:V(rad/min) = V(°/min) × ( 0.000290888 / 0.0166667 ) = V(°/min) × 0.0174533
Mathematical FormulaValue in Radian/minute = Value in Degree/minute × 0.017453293Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
Worked Example

Evaluating an input of 12 Degree/minute (°/min) produces 0.20944 Radian/minute (rad/min). In heavy-duty utility and industrial workloads, 1000 °/min equals 17.453293 rad/min.

Inverse check: 1 rad/min = 57.29578 °/min.
