How to Convert Hertz to Radian Per Second

1 hertz = 6.28319 radians per second

Radian Per Second = Hertz × 6.28319

Example: 1 Hz × 6.28319 = 6.2832 rad/s

Reverse Conversion

To convert radians per second back to hertz:

  • Remember, 1 radian per second equals 0.159155 hertz.
  • To convert 6.2832 rad/s to Hz, multiply 6.2832 x 0.159155, resulting in 1 Hz.

1 Hz is also equal to:

  • 0.001 kilohertz
  • 60 revolution per minute
About these units

Hertz: SI unit of frequency; one cycle (or event) per second. Symbol: Hz = s⁻¹

Radian per second: SI unit of angular velocity; the rate of change of angular position in radians per second.

Frequently Asked Questions
