How to Convert Revolution Per Minute to Hertz

1 revolution per minute = 0.0166667 hertz exact

Hertz = Revolution Per Minute × 0.0166667

Example: 10 rpm × 0.0166667 = 16 Hz

Reverse Conversion

To convert hertz back to revolutions per minute:

  • Remember, 1 hertz equals 60 revolutions per minute.
  • To convert 16 Hz to rpm, multiply 16 x 60, resulting in 10 rpm.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.
