Unit Description
Revolutions per Second (rps)
Definition
Revolutions per second (rps) is a unit of rotational frequency representing the number of complete rotations around a fixed axis in one second. It provides a more direct relationship to the hertz unit for rotational measurements.
History
RPS developed as a scientific alternative to RPM, providing a direct conversion to hertz (1 rps = 1 Hz for rotational motion). It became important in scientific and engineering applications where SI units were preferred over traditional mechanical units.
Current Use
RPS is used in scientific applications, high-speed machinery, precision instruments, and engineering calculations where direct conversion to hertz is beneficial. It's found in centrifuge specifications, high-speed motor ratings, and scientific equipment.
Megahertz (MHz)
Definition
A megahertz (MHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one million hertz (10⁶ Hz). It represents high frequencies commonly used in radio communications, early computer systems, and various electronic applications.
History
The megahertz became important with the development of radio technology in the early 20th century. It was essential for describing radio frequency bands and became widely known through radio broadcasting, later extending to early computer systems and electronic devices.
Current Use
Megahertz is widely used in radio broadcasting (AM/FM radio), early computer specifications, electronic circuits, and various communication systems. It's standard for radio frequency allocations, older processor speeds, and many electronic device specifications.

Conversion Examples
Convert 1 Revolutions per Second to Megahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 rps = 0.000001 MHz
- Conversion Formula: MHz = rps ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 1 rps ÷ 1e+6 = 0.000001 MHz
Convert 10 Revolutions per Second to Megahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 rps = 0.000001 MHz
- Conversion Formula: MHz = rps ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 10 rps ÷ 1e+6 = 0.00001 MHz
Convert 100 Revolutions per Second to Megahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 rps = 0.000001 MHz
- Conversion Formula: MHz = rps ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 100 rps ÷ 1e+6 = 0.0001 MHz
Convert 1,000 Revolutions per Second to Megahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 rps = 0.000001 MHz
- Conversion Formula: MHz = rps ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 1,000 rps ÷ 1e+6 = 0.001 MHz
