How to Convert Radian/minute² to Degree/second²

Converting Radian/minute² (rad/min²) to Degree/second² (°/s²) is a core calculation in Angular Acceleration, which measures the rate of change of rotational velocity over time about a rotation axis. Because Degree/second² is a broader physical scale than Radian/minute², converting from rad/min² to °/s² condenses the numerical figure. It takes 62.831853 Radian/minute² to equal a single Degree/second² (1 rad/min² = 0.0159155 °/s²). To convert any quantity, multiply by 0.0159155 (or divide by 62.831853).

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 rad/min² = 0.000277778 radian per second squared (rad/s²)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 °/s² = 0.0174533 radian per second squared (rad/s²)
Step-by-step substitution for Radian/minute² → Degree/second²:V(°/s²) = V(rad/min²) × ( 0.000277778 / 0.0174533 ) = V(rad/min²) × 0.0159155
