How to Convert Radian/second² to Revolution/second²

Converting Radian/second² (rad/s²) to Revolution/second² (rev/s²) is a core calculation in Angular Acceleration, which measures the rate of change of rotational velocity over time about a rotation axis. Because Revolution/second² is a broader physical scale than Radian/second², converting from rad/s² to rev/s² condenses the numerical figure. It takes 6.283185 Radian/second² to equal a single Revolution/second² (1 rad/s² = 0.159155 rev/s²). To convert any quantity, multiply by 0.159155 (or divide by 6.283185).

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:

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 (k_source):1 rad/s² = 1 radian per second squared (rad/s²)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 rev/s² = 6.283185 radian per second squared (rad/s²)

Step-by-step substitution for Radian/second² → Revolution/second²:V(rev/s²) = V(rad/s²) × ( 1 / 6.283185 ) = V(rad/s²) × 0.159155

Worked Example

For an engineering input of 15 rad/s², applying the conversion factor yields exactly 2.387324 rev/s². At larger operational scale, 100 Radian/second² corresponds to 15.915494 rev/s².

Inverse check: 1 rev/s² = 6.283185 rad/s².
