RPM to Radians per Second

What is RPM to rad/s Converter?

This tool converts Revolutions per Minute (RPM) to Radians per Second (rad/s) quickly and accurately. Whether you're working with electronics, audio, video, or mechanical systems, this converter provides instant results.

Understanding the Units

Revolutions per Minute (RPM): Standard unit for rotational speed. Used for engines, motors, fans, hard drives, and turntables.

Radians per Second (rad/s): Angular velocity in SI units. Used in physics, robotics, and control systems engineering.

Common Applications

• Automotive: Engine speed and tachometer readings
• Motors: Electric motor and fan specifications
• Manufacturing: Machine spindle and tool speeds
• Physics: Angular velocity calculations
• Robotics: Motor control and kinematics
• Engineering: Rotational dynamics problems

How to Use

Converting RPM to rad/s takes just seconds:

1. Enter the RPM value in the first input field
2. View the rad/s result instantly in the second field
3. Copy the result using the copy button if needed

Reverse Conversion

Need to convert rad/s to RPM instead? Simply click the swap button (↔) to reverse the conversion direction, or type in the rad/s field directly.

Practical Example

For example, 1000 RPM equals 104.72 rad/s.
