How to Convert Kilohertz to Revolutions per Minute

To convert a measurement in kilohertz to a measurement in revolutions per minute, multiply the frequency by the following conversion ratio: 60,000 revolutions per minute/kilohertz.

Since one kilohertz is equal to 60,000 revolutions per minute, you can use this simple formula to convert:

revolutions per minute = kilohertz × 60,000

The frequency in revolutions per minute is equal to the frequency in kilohertz multiplied by 60,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilohertz to revolutions per minute using the formula above.
revolutions per minute = (5 kHZ × 60,000) = 300,000 RPM

How Many Revolutions per Minute Are in a Kilohertz?

There are 60,000 revolutions per minute in a kilohertz, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 kHZ = 60,000 RPM

Kilohertz and revolutions per minute are both units used to measure frequency. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Kilohertz?

Kilohertz is a measure of frequency equal to one thousand cycles per second.

The kilohertz is a multiple of the hertz, which is the SI derived unit for frequency. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilohertz can be abbreviated as kHZ; for example, 1 kilohertz can be written as 1 kHZ.

What Are Revolutions per Minute?

Revolutions per minute are a measure of the number of rotations, turns, or revolutions, that an object makes each minute.

Revolutions per minute can be abbreviated as RPM, and are also sometimes abbreviated as rev/min or r/min. For example, 1 revolution per minute can be written as 1 RPM, 1 rev/min, or 1 r/min.

Revolutions per minute can be expressed using the formula:

RPM = Revolutions / Time in Minutes
