Rpm per second to radians per second squared

Type a value in rpm/s to get it in rad/s² instantly.

10.47rad/s²

That's 2.1× as quick as a ceiling fan, while a power drill is 19× quicker. Reaching 1,000 rpm from rest would take about 10 seconds.

What it means

How fast does it spin up?

Angular acceleration is torque divided by moment of inertia, so the same motor spins a light disc up far faster than a heavy one.

The math

How to convert rpm/s to rad/s²

To convert rpm per second to radians per second squared, multiply by 0.10472.

Example: 100 rpm/s × 0.10472 = 10.472 rad/s².

In the other direction, 1 rad/s² = 9.5493 rpm/s.
