Convert Degrees per minute squared to Revolutions per second squared
Convert Degrees per minute squared (°/min²) to Revolutions per second squared (rev/s²) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
rev/s² = °/min² × 7.716049383e-7
About Degrees per minute squared
The degree per minute squared (°/min²) equals π/648000 ≈ 4.848 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s², coincidentally equal to 1 °/h/s. It appears in slow rotational dynamics: spinning astronomical instrument platforms ramp up at fractions of a °/min² to avoid disturbing cryogenic detectors. Large CNC rotary tables for turbine disc indexing programme controlled acceleration profiles in °/min². 1 °/min² = π/648000 rad/s².
About Revolutions per second squared
The revolution per second squared (rev/s²) equals 2π ≈ 6.2832 rad/s², used for high-speed machines. Ultracentrifuge rotors (Beckman-Coulter Optima MAX-XP) reach 1333 rps operating speed, achieving angular acceleration of 2-5 rev/s² during run-up. Dental air turbines spinning at 400 rps accelerate at 50-200 rev/s² during the power stroke. 1 rev/s² = 2π rad/s² = 60 rpm/s = 360 °/s².
