How to convert RPM per second to revolutions per second squared
Revolutions per minute per second means a change in rpm each second. It differs from revolutions per minute squared by a factor of 60.
Use x for the value in rpm/s, b for the intermediate value in rad/s², and y for the result in rev/s².
rev/s² = rpm/s × 0.10471975511965977 ÷ 6.283185307179586
Worked examples
10 rpm/s ≈ 0.166666666667 rev/s²
Step 1: (10 × 0.10471975512) ≈ 1.0471975512 rad/s².
Step 2: 1.0471975512 ÷ 6.28318530718 ≈ 0.166666666667 rev/s².20 rpm/s ≈ 0.333333333333 rev/s²
Step 1: (20 × 0.10471975512) ≈ 2.09439510239 rad/s².
Step 2: 2.09439510239 ÷ 6.28318530718 ≈ 0.333333333333 rev/s².
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About RPM per second
RPM per second (rpm/s) measures acceleration angular under the conventions above. The base value in rad/s² is (x × 0.10471975512), where x is the numerical value in rpm/s. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Revolutions per second squared
Revolutions per second squared (rev/s²) measures acceleration angular under the conventions above. The base value in rad/s² is (x × 6.28318530718), where x is the numerical value in rev/s². Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
