Hztorps

Convert hertz (Hz) to revolutions per second (rps).

Factor1 Hz = 1 rps

Converter

Hz

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
100rps

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
rps = Hz × 1

Multiply any value in hertz by 1 to obtain the value in revolutions per second.

Worked example

Convert 100 Hz to rps.

  1. 01Start with 100 Hz.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 100 × 1 = 100 rps.
Result100 Hz = 100 rps

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from Hz to rps?
1 Hz equals 1 rps. To convert, multiply the value in hertz by 1.
How do I convert 1 Hz to rps?
1 Hz = 1 rps. For any value, multiply by 1.
How do I convert rps back to Hz?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1. So 1 rps = 1 Hz.
When would I need to convert hertz to revolution per second?
Frequency conversions between Hz and rps are needed in signal and RF engineering, motor and turbomachinery rotational-speed work, vibration and pulse-rate analysis, and control-loop sample-rate specification. Hz dominates electronics and instrumentation; kHz, MHz and GHz cover audio through microwave; rpm and rps dominate mechanical rotational equipment; cycles per minute, second and hour cover slow industrial cyclic processes. Angular frequency (rad/s) and time-period (Hz ↔ seconds) conversions are NOT included — they require either a 2π factor or a reciprocal relationship.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
