Cycles Per Minute To Hertz Formula
The following formula is used to convert cycles per minute (CPM) to hertz (Hz).
Hz = \frac{CPM}{60}Variables:
- Hz is the frequency in hertz
- CPM is the cycles per minute
To calculate the frequency in hertz, divide the cycles per minute by 60.
| Cycles Per Minute (CPM) | Hertz (Hz) |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0.017 |
| 5 | 0.083 |
| 10 | 0.167 |
| 15 | 0.250 |
| 20 | 0.333 |
| 30 | 0.500 |
| 45 | 0.750 |
| 50 | 0.833 |
| 60 | 1.000 |
| 75 | 1.250 |
| 90 | 1.500 |
| 100 | 1.667 |
| 120 | 2.000 |
| 180 | 3.000 |
| 240 | 4.000 |
| 300 | 5.000 |
| 360 | 6.000 |
| 600 | 10.000 |
| 900 | 15.000 |
| 1200 | 20.000 |
| *Formula: Hz = CPM ÷ 60. Equivalences: 1 Hz = 60 CPM; 1 CPM ≈ 0.016667 Hz. RPM is equivalent to CPM. | |
What is Cycles Per Minute?
Cycles per minute (CPM) is a unit of frequency that indicates the number of cycles or repetitions of a periodic event occurring in one minute. It is commonly used in various fields such as engineering, mechanics, and electronics to describe the speed or rate of oscillations, rotations, or vibrations. For example, a motor running at 1800 CPM completes 1800 rotations every minute.
How to Calculate Cycles Per Minute to Hertz?
The following steps outline how to convert cycles per minute to hertz.
- First, determine the number of cycles per minute (CPM).
- Next, divide the cycles per minute by 60 to get the frequency in hertz (Hz).
- Finally, check your answer with the calculator above.
