Revolutions per minute to degrees per second
Type a value in rpm to get it in °/s instantly.
6,000°/s
That's 30× as fast as a vinyl record, while a washing machine spin is 1.39× faster. On a 30 cm wheel the rim moves at about 56.55 km/h.
Convert the other way: °/s to rpm
What it means
How fast does that spin?
Rim speed assumes a wheel 30 cm across. A bigger wheel at the same rpm moves faster at the edge.
The math
How to convert rpm to °/s
To convert revolutions per minute to degrees per second, multiply by 6.
Example: 1,000 rpm × 6 = 6,000 °/s.
In the other direction, 1 °/s = 0.166667 rpm.
