SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on converting revolutions per time into radians per second. To convert 1.13 revolutions every 2.08 seconds to radians per second, the formula used is (1.13 rev / 2.08 s) * (2π rad/rev). This results in the calculation of (1.13 * 2π) / 2.08 rad/s. Understanding that 1 revolution equals 2π radians is essential for this conversion.

Hello I have a question about converting rev to rad/s.


If i had 1.13 revolutions for every 2.08s, how do I convert that into rad/s?

1.13rev/2.08s * 2pi ?


Thank you for you help.

1 \ \mbox{rev}=2\pi \ \mbox{rad} is all u need to know.

I do not quite understand 1 rev = 2pi rad. I have 1.13 rev per 2.08 seconds. So would 1.13/2.08 = rev? and then take that and multiply 2pi?
 
\frac{1.13 \ \mbox{rev}}{2.08 \ \mbox{s}}=\frac{1.13\cdot 2\pi \ \mbox{rad}}{2.08 \ \mbox{s}}=\frac{1.13\cdot 2\pi}{2.08} \cdot \frac{\mbox{rad}}{\mbox{s}}

Daniel.
