How to Convert Revolution Per Minute to Radian Per Second

1 revolution per minute = 0.10472 radians per second

Radian Per Second = Revolution Per Minute × 0.10472

Example: 1000 rpm × 0.10472 = 104.72 rad/s

Reverse Conversion

To convert radians per second back to revolutions per minute:

  • Remember, 1 radian per second equals 9.5493 revolutions per minute.
  • To convert 104.72 rad/s to rpm, multiply 104.72 x 9.5493, resulting in 1000 rpm.

1000 rpm is also equal to:

  • 16.667 hertz
  • 0.016667 kilohertz
About these units

Revolution per minute: Unit of rotational frequency; number of complete revolutions per minute.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is 1000 revolutions per minute in radians per second?

1000 revolutions per minute equals 104.72 radians per second. This is calculated by multiplying 1000 by the conversion factor 0.10472.

What does 1000 revolutions per minute look like in radians per second?

1000 revolutions per minute (104.72 radians per second) is an engine idle speed — typical car engine (600-1000 RPM idle).

How do you calculate 1000 revolutions per minute to radians per second?

Multiply 1000 by the conversion factor 0.10472. The calculation is 1000 × 0.10472 = 104.72 radians per second. This factor is defined by international measurement standards.
