How to Convert Degree/second² to RPM/second

Converting Degree/second² (°/s²) to RPM/second (rev/(min·s)) is a core calculation in Angular Acceleration, which measures the rate of change of rotational velocity over time about a rotation axis. Because RPM/second is a broader physical scale than Degree/second², converting from °/s² to rev/(min·s) condenses the numerical figure. It takes 6 Degree/second² to equal a single RPM/second (1 °/s² = 0.166667 rev/(min·s)). To convert any quantity, multiply by 0.166667 (or divide by 6).

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 °/s² = 0.0174533 radian per second squared (rad/s²)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 rev/(min·s) = 0.10472 radian per second squared (rad/s²)
Step-by-step substitution for Degree/second² → RPM/second:V(rev/(min·s)) = V(°/s²) × ( 0.0174533 / 0.10472 ) = V(°/s²) × 0.166667
Mathematical FormulaValue in RPM/second = Value in Degree/second² × 0.16666667Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.
Worked Example

For an engineering input of 36 °/s², applying the conversion factor yields exactly 6 rev/(min·s). At larger operational scale, 240 Degree/second² corresponds to 40 rev/(min·s).

Inverse check: 1 rev/(min·s) = 6 °/s².
