How to convert units in general

Conversions can be done either with the "->" conversion operator or with the equivalent "convert" function. The function has three parameters: a quantity, a unit to convert from and a unit to convert to. Likewise the conversion operator uses three values: the quantity and unit to convert from are placed on the left side of the operator while the unit to convert to goes to the right side.

Solid Angle Units

The basic unit of angular speed is the "radian / second". All units of angular speed are expressed in terms of this base unit and so measurements can be converted from any one of the following units to any other.

radPS [also: strob]
Basic unit of angular speed (1 radian / second): 1 radPS
rpm
1 revolution per minute: pi/30 radPS
rps
1 revolution per second: 2 pi radPS

Sample Conversions of Angular Speed Units

Convert radians per second to revolutions per minute.

10 radPS -> rpm = 95.492966

convert(10; radPS; rpm) = 95.492966

Convert radians per second to revolutions per

10 radPS -> rps = 1.5915494

convert(10; radPS; rps) = 1.5915494

Convert revolutions per minute to radians per second.

10 rpm -> radPS = 1.0471976

convert(10; rpm; radPS) = 1.0471976

Convert revolutions per minute to revolutions per second.

10 rpm -> rrps = 0.1666667

convert(10; rpm; rps) = 0.1666667

Convert revolutions per second to radians per second.

10 rps -> radPS = 62.831853

convert(10; rps; radPS) = 62.831853

Convert revolutions per second to revolutions per minute.

10 rps -> rpm = 600

convert(10; rps; rpm) = 600
