Hertz to revolutions per minute
Type a value in Hz to get it in rpm instantly.
That's 1.67× as fast as a 60 Hz screen, while concert pitch A is 4.4× faster. As sound in air, one wave would be 3.43 m long.
Convert the other way: rpm to Hz
What it means
What does that look like?
The wavelength shown is for sound in air at 20 °C (343 m/s). Radio waves travel at the speed of light, so their wavelengths are far longer.
The math
How to convert Hz to rpm
To convert hertz to revolutions per minute, multiply by 60.
Example: 100 Hz × 60 = 6,000 rpm.
In the other direction, 1 rpm = 0.0166667 Hz.

About these units
Hertz (Hz)
One hertz is one cycle per second. It is the SI unit of frequency and the base for every multiple below.
Revolutions per minute (rpm)
Revolutions per minute count full turns each minute: 60 rpm is 1 Hz. Engines, drills and hard drives are rated in rpm.
