Convert Revolutions per minute to Revolutions per second
Revolutions per minute → Revolutions per second
rpm × 0.01666667 = rps
rps × 60 = rpm
To convert revolutions per minute (rpm) to revolutions per second (rps), multiply the revolutions per minute value by 0.01666667. 1 rpm = 0.01666667 rps, and 1 rps = 60 rpm. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.
