How to Convert Cycles per Second to RPM
To convert cycles per second (cps) to revolutions per minute (rpm), multiply the number of cycles per second by 60. This is because 1 cycle per second is equal to 60 revolutions per minute.
Formula
RPM = Cycles per Second × 60
or
rpm = cps × 60
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in cycles per second
- Multiply that number by 60
- The result is the equivalent frequency in revolutions per minute
Examples
- 1 cps = 1 × 60 = 60 rpm
- 5 cps = 5 × 60 = 300 rpm
- 10 cps = 10 × 60 = 600 rpm
