Frequency converter

Convert frequencies between Hz, kHz, MHz, GHz and RPM. 1 Hz is one cycle per second, so 60 RPM equals 1 Hz.

Result

16.6667Hz

1 rpm = 0.0166667 Hz

Same amount, two scales

1,000 rpm

16.67 Hz

Both bars show the same amount: 1,000 rpm on top, 16.67 Hz below.

How it works

Frequencies are converted through the hertz (cycles per second). RPM (revolutions per minute) measures rotation speed of motors and engines; divide by 60 to get hertz.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert RPM to Hz?

Divide by 60. For example, 3,000 RPM = 50 Hz.

How many hertz are in a gigahertz?

One billion: 1 GHz = 1,000 MHz = 1,000,000,000 Hz.

How many hertz are in 1 revolution per minute?

1 revolution per minute = 0.0166667 hertz. The other way round, 1 hertz = 60 revolutions per minute.

How many revolutions per minute are in 1 hertz?

1 hertz = 60 revolutions per minute. The other way round, 1 revolution per minute = 0.0166667 hertz.
