About Degrees per minute per second
The degree per minute per second (°/min/s) equals π/10800 ≈ 2.909 × 10⁻⁴ rad/s², expressing the rate of change of angular speed in °/min per second. Telescope drive systems ramp slew speed in °/min/s to prevent mechanical shock; a 2 °/min/s ramp safely accelerates to 120 °/min tracking rates. Rotary kiln drive start-up angular acceleration is commonly recorded in °/min/s. 1 °/min/s = π/10800 rad/s².
About Microradians per second squared
The microradian per second squared (µrad/s²) equals 10⁻⁶ rad/s², characteristic of navigation-grade inertial systems. Gyroscopes on commercial aircraft detect angular accelerations of 0.1-10 µrad/s² during steady cruise; aeroelastic wing flexing during gusts generates 5-50 µrad/s². Geodetic VLBI antennas accelerate through this range during sky survey slewing. 1 µrad/s² = 10⁻⁶ rad/s² ≈ 5.73 × 10⁻⁵ °/s².
