M/Min to RPM Calculator





Formula

The formula to calculate RPM is:

RPM = \(\frac{M/Min}{\pi D}\)

Where:

What is M/Min to RPM?

M/Min to RPM is a conversion from meters per minute to revolutions per minute. This is often used in mechanical engineering to measure the speed of rotation of a mechanical component. Meters per minute measures linear speed, or how fast an object is moving in a straight line, while revolutions per minute measures rotational speed, or how fast an object is spinning around an axis. The conversion between these two units of speed depends on the circumference of the rotating object.

Example Calculation

Example 1:

Calculation:

RPM = \(\frac{100}{\pi \times 0.5} = \frac{100}{1.5708} \approx 63.66\) revolutions per minute

Example 2:

Calculation:

RPM = \(\frac{200}{\pi \times 1} = \frac{200}{3.14159} \approx 63.66\) revolutions per minute
