- 1 rpm = 6 °/s
- 1 × 6 = 6 °/s
How to convert revolutions per minute to per second
1 rpm = 6 °/s, so multiply by 6 to go from revolutions per minute to degrees per second. Going the other way, 1 °/s = 0.166666666667 rpm.
°/s = rpm × 6 rpm = °/s × 0.166666666667
Worked example:
1 rpm = 6 °/s 5 × 6 = 30 °/s
