Formula
Revolutions per Minute to Kilohertz conversion: 1 rpm = 1.666666667e-05 kHz kilohertzes = revolutions per minutes × 1.666666667e-05 1 kHz = 60000 rpm revolutions per minutes = kilohertzes × 60000
Example
Example: Convert 10 rpm to kHz: 10 rpm × 1.666666667e-05 = 0.0001666666667 kHz So, 10 rpm is about 0.0001666666667 kHz. To convert back, multiply by 60000: 0.0001666666667 kHz × 60000 = 10 rpm.
