Hertz to revolutions per minute

1 hertz in revolutions per minute
1 Hz = 60 rpm
rpm = Hz × 60

To convert hertz to revolutions per minute, multiply by 60. The table below gives the values people look up most often, and the converter works for any number.

Hertz to revolutions per minute table

Common hertz values converted to revolutions per minute.
Hertz Revolutions per minute
1 Hz 60
2 Hz 120
3 Hz 180
4 Hz 240
5 Hz 300
10 Hz 600
15 Hz 900
20 Hz 1,200
25 Hz 1,500
30 Hz 1,800
40 Hz 2,400
50 Hz 3,000
75 Hz 4,500

1,000 Hz 60,000

How the conversion works

The relationship is rpm = Hz × 60. Both units measure frequency, so the conversion is a fixed factor that never changes.

Common questions

How many revolutions per minute are in one hertz?
One hertz equals 60 revolutions per minute. rpm = Hz × 60.
How do you convert hertz to revolutions per minute?
Use rpm = Hz × 60. So 10 Hz is 600 rpm.
How many hertz are in one revolution per minute?
One revolution per minute equals 0.016667 hertz, which is the reverse of the conversion above.
