angular velocity Quantity (Library of Units and Constants

Name:
revolution-per-minute
(convert revolution-per-minute to new units)

Abbreviation:
rpm

Metric (SI) Equivalents:
6.2831853072 radians / minute
0.10471975512 radians / second

Metric (SI) Dimensions:
time^-1 × plane-angle

Description in Terms of
Other Units and Constants:
2 pi radians / minute

Notes:
(1) Even though the radian is a dimensionless derived unit and could be dropped, it is shown in the metric (SI) equivalents for clarity.
(2) Even though plane-angle is not an official metric (SI) dimension and could be dropped, it is shown in the dimensions for clarity.
