Use the Revolutions per second to Degrees per second Converter
Revolutions per second to Degrees per second formula and what each symbol means
°/s = rev/s × 360
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| rev/s | Revolution per second |
| °/s | Degree per second |
Revolutions per second to Degrees per second examples
1 rev/s
1 rev/s × 360 = 360 °/s.
10 rev/s
10 rev/s × 360 = 3,600 °/s.
100 rev/s
100 rev/s × 360 = 36,000 °/s.
Revolutions per second compared with Degrees per second
One rev/s is 360 times as large as one °/s, so your number gets bigger when you convert revolutions per second to degrees per second and smaller when you convert back. If the answer is not larger than what you typed, you divided instead of multiplying.
About revolutions per second and degrees per second
Revolution per second (rev/s): Revolutions per second, numerically equal to frequency in hertz. Degree per second (°/s): Degrees turned each second; 360 °/s is one revolution per second.
How to calculate Revolutions per second to Degrees per second step by step
- Enter the value in rev/s (the starting unit).
- Multiply by 360, because 1 rev/s = 360 °/s.
- The product is the value in °/s. To go back, divide by 360 or multiply by 0.002777778.

Common mistakes when calculating Revolutions per second to Degrees per second
- Mixing up frequency in hertz (cycles per second) with angular velocity in rad/s, which differs by a factor of 2π.
- Dividing when you should multiply: from rev/s to °/s multiply by 360; from °/s to rev/s divide by 360.
Revolutions per second to Degrees per second FAQ
How many °/s are in 1 rev/s?
1 rev/s equals 360 °/s.
How many rev/s are in 1 °/s?
1 °/s equals 0.002777778 rev/s.
Is 1 rev/s = 360 °/s an exact conversion?
The factor is shown rounded to 7 significant figures (360). The calculator above uses more digits.
What is a revolution per second (rev/s)?
Revolutions per second, numerically equal to frequency in hertz.
How can I estimate revolutions per second to degrees per second in my head?
One rev/s is 360 times as large as one °/s, so your number gets bigger when you convert revolutions per second to degrees per second and smaller when you convert back. If the answer is not larger than what you typed, you divided instead of multiplying.
What is 7 rev/s in degrees per second?
7 rev/s = 2,520 °/s (since 7 × 360).
What is 40 rev/s in degrees per second?
40 rev/s = 14,400 °/s (since 40 × 360).
What is 200 rev/s in degrees per second?
200 rev/s = 72,000 °/s (since 200 × 360).
How many decimals should I keep when converting rev/s to °/s?
Match the precision of your original measurement. For example, 3,600 °/s rounds to 3,600 °/s at 3 significant figures; keep more digits only for engineering or scientific work.
