Quick Reference
1 radian per second (rad/s) = 159.1549431 millihertz (mHz)
1 millihertz (mHz) = 0.006283185307 radian per second (rad/s)
How to Convert radian per second to millihertz
1 rad/s = 159.15494309189535 mHz
1 mHz = 0.006283185307179587 rad/s
To convert radian per second to millihertz, multiply the value by 159.1549431. To convert millihertz back to radian per second, divide by 159.1549431.
Example: convert 10 rad/s to mHz:
10 rad/s = 10 x 159.15494309189535 = 1591.5494309189535 mHz
radian per second
Definition: Radians per second (rad/s) is the SI unit of angular speed or angular velocity. It represents the rate of change of an angle in radians over time, specifically the number of radians rotated in one second.
History/origin: The radian as a unit of angle measurement is fundamental in mathematics and physics. Defining angular speed in radians per second is essential for consistency with other SI units and simplifies many equations in rotational dynamics.
Current use: Radians per second is widely used in physics, engineering, and mathematics for describing rotational motion. It's essential in calculations involving torque, angular momentum, and rotational kinetic energy. It appears in fields such as mechanics, electrical engineering (e.g., analyzing AC circuits), and signal processing (e.g., representing signal frequencies).
millihertz
Definition: A millihertz (mHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one thousandth (1/1000) of a hertz (Hz). The hertz, in turn, is the SI unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second.
History/origin: The millihertz is derived from the hertz, named after the German physicist Heinrich Hertz, who made significant contributions to the understanding of electromagnetic waves. The prefix 'milli-' denotes a factor of 10<sup>-3</sup>, adhering to the SI system of units.
Current use: Millihertz is used to measure very low frequencies, often encountered in fields like geophysics (e.g., measuring seismic waves), biology (e.g., measuring slow biological rhythms), and some areas of electronics and signal processing where extremely slow oscillations or events are analyzed.
