Rotational Mechanics

Post by Ryoga »

Okay, I feel really stupid for asking this, but I don't have access to my physics book at work (something I'll rectify tomorrow), and could use an answer with a quickness:

How do you convert from revolutions per minute (RPM) to Hertz? Are they the same thing?

Please go easy on me. :oops:

:D

1rpm = 1rot/minute = 1/60 rot/s, or Hertz
