= 1 Hz = 1/s radian per second: rad/s ≡ 1/(2π) Hz ≈ 0.159 155 Hz: revolution per minute: rpm ≡ One rpm equals one rotation completed around a fixed axis in one minute of time. ≈ 0.104 719 755 rad/s
Some designs such as those used with older Apple computers (Lisa, early Macintosh, later II's) were more complex and used variable rotational speeds and per-track storage density (at a constant read/record rate) to store more data per disc; for example, between 394 rpm (with 12 sectors per track) and 590 rpm (8 sectors) with Mac's 800 kB double ...
In contrast to the value is often expressed in SI units volt–seconds per radian (V⋅s/rad), thus it is an inverse measure of . [7] Sometimes it is expressed in non SI units volts per kilorevolution per minute (V/krpm).
The turn (symbol tr or pla) is a unit of plane angle measurement that is the measure of a complete angle—the angle subtended by a complete circle at its center. One turn is equal to 2π radians, 360 degrees or 400 gradians.
Recognized effects of higher acute radiation doses are described in more detail in the article on radiation poisoning.Although the International System of Units (SI) defines the sievert (Sv) as the unit of radiation dose equivalent, chronic radiation levels and standards are still often given in units of millirems (mrem), where 1 mrem equals 1/1,000 of a rem and 1 rem equals 0.01 Sv.
The rotation rate of the Earth (Ω = 7.2921 × 10 −5 rad/s) can be calculated as 2π / T radians per second, where T is the rotation period of the Earth which is one sidereal day (23 h 56 min 4.1 s). [2] In the midlatitudes, the typical value for is about 10 −4 rad/s.
Don't rely on bloviating pundits to tell you who'll prevail on Hollywood's big night. The Huffington Post crunched the stats on every Oscar nominee of the past 30 years to produce a scientific metric for predicting the winners at the 2013 Academy Awards.
There is a specific acuity limit in detecting an approaching object's looming motion. [40] [41] This is regarded as the subtended angular velocity detection threshold (SAVT) limit of visual acuity. [42] It has a practical value of 0.0275 rad/s. [43]
