Degrees per hour per second (°/h/s)
Nanoradians per second squared (nrad/s²)

Conversion Formula

nrad/s² = °/h/s × 4848.136811

About Degrees per hour per second

The degree per hour per second (°/h/s) equals π/648000 ≈ 4.848 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s², numerically identical to 1 °/min². Gyroscope bias ramp rate - the rate at which drift error accelerates - is specified in °/h/s per IEEE 952-1997; strategic-grade fibre-optic inertial navigation units achieve values below 0.001 °/h/s. 1 °/h/s = π/648000 rad/s² ≈ 4.848 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s².

About Nanoradians per second squared

The nanoradian per second squared (nrad/s²) equals 10⁻⁹ rad/s², measuring imperceptibly gradual changes in rotation rate. Precision spacecraft attitude-control systems operate in this range during ultra-slow slew manoeuvres; GRACE-FO drag-free cold-gas thrusters produced angular accelerations at the nrad/s² scale. Ring laser gyroscopes monitoring Earth's polar motion require resolving nrad/s² variations. 1 nrad/s² = 10⁻⁹ rad/s² ≈ 1.02 × 10⁻⁹ rpm/s.
