Hertz to Revolutions per Minute Converter
1 hertz = 60 revolutions per minute
1 hertz equals 60 revolutions per minute
How to convert hertz to revolutions per minute
Hertz counts complete cycles per second. This converter treats one revolution as one cycle, so 60 rpm = 1 Hz; angular frequency in radians per second would additionally involve 2π.
rpm = Hz × 60One hertz is 60 revolutions per minute, so a single multiplication converts any value.
600 rpm = 10 × 60Hertz to revolutions per minute conversion table

Sources and precision
Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
