How to Convert Degree/minute² to Radian/second²

Converting Degree/minute² (°/min²) to Radian/second² (rad/s²) is a core calculation in Angular Acceleration, which measures the rate of change of rotational velocity over time about a rotation axis. Because Radian/second² is a broader physical scale than Degree/minute², converting from °/min² to rad/s² condenses the numerical figure. It takes 206264.806 Degree/minute² to equal a single Radian/second² (1 °/min² = 4.848137 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s²). To convert any quantity, multiply by 4.848137 × 10⁻⁶ (or divide by 206264.806).

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 squared (rad/s²)) 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 °/min² = 4.848137 × 10⁻⁶ radian per second squared (rad/s²)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 rad/s² = 1 radian per second squared (rad/s²)
Step-by-step substitution for Degree/minute² → Radian/second²:V(rad/s²) = V(°/min²) × ( 4.848137 × 10⁻⁶ / 1 ) = V(°/min²) × 4.848137 × 10⁻⁶
