How to Convert RPM to Kilohertz
To convert revolutions per minute (rpm) to kilohertz (kHz), divide the number of rpm by 60,000. This is because 1 kilohertz is equal to 1,000 hertz, and 1 hertz is 60 rpm.
Formula
Kilohertz = RPM ÷ 60,000
or
kHz = rpm ÷ 60,000
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in rpm
- Divide that number by 60,000
- The result is the equivalent frequency in kilohertz
Examples
- 60,000 rpm = 60,000 ÷ 60,000 = 1 kHz
- 300,000 rpm = 300,000 ÷ 60,000 = 5 kHz
- 600,000 rpm = 600,000 ÷ 60,000 = 10 kHz
