Radian per second (radian/sec)
A radian per second is a measure of angular velocity. It represents how fast an object rotates or revolves. If an object rotates one radian in one second, its angular velocity is one radian per second.
Hertz (Hz)
Hertz is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI). It measures how often something happens within a second. In most contexts, it refers to how many cycles a periodic function completes in one second.
How to calculate hertz from rad/sec
1 Hz = 2π rad/s = 6.2831853 rad/s
or
1 rad/s = 1/2π Hz = 0.1591549 Hz
Rad/s to hertz formula
f(Hz) = ω(rad/s) / 2π
Example- Calculate frequency in hertz from angular velocity of 300 rad/s
Ans. f(Hz) = 300rad/s / 2π = 47.75 Hz

FAQs on Radian/sec to hertz conversion
Is Hz equal to rad/sec?
No, Hz (hertz) and rad/sec (radians per second) are both units of frequency, but they are not equivalent. Hz measures the number of cycles per second, while rad/sec measures the angular frequency or the rate of change of the phase of a sinusoidal waveform.
Is hertz equal to 1 sec?
No, hertz represents the number of cycles per second. A frequency of 1 hertz means one cycle occurs every second, but hertz itself is not equal to seconds.
What is the conversion of 1 Hz?
1 Hz to radians per second, 1 Hz=2π rad/sec.
What is 60 Hz equal to?
In terms of radians per second, 60 Hz=120π rad/sec or approximately 377.99 rad/sec.
What is 1 hertz in radians?
1 hertz represents 1 cycle per second, and a full cycle in terms of radians is 2π radians. So, 1 Hz=2π rad/sec.
How fast is 1 radian per second?
1 radian per second means that in one second, something has moved through an angle of 1 radian. It's a measure of angular speed.
What units are hertz?
Hertz (Hz) is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI). It is used to represent the number of cycles per second.
