Hz → rad/sω = 2πf
Exact definition1 cycle = 1 turn = 2π rad
rad/s → Hzf = ω ÷ (2π)
iThe two rates use the same one-second time base. The factor 2π is exact and displayed results may be rounded.

How to use

1

Choose Hz → rad/s or rad/s → Hz

Use the tabs to switch direction. Forward mode needs hertz; reverse uses the opposite unit.

2

Enter the value

Type a non-negative value in the active unit field.

3

Convert and read the result

Use Convert or let the result update automatically.

Definition
One full cycle corresponds to one turn, or 2π radians. The calculator relates cyclic frequency in Hz to angular frequency in rad/s for the same periodic motion.
What it calculates
Value between Hz and rad/s. Switch direction with the converter tabs.
Inputs
  • Hertz (Hz) or reverse unit (rad/s)
Outputs
  • Converted value in rad/s or Hz
Formula
ω = 2πf · f = ω ÷ (2π)
