How to Convert Degrees per Second to Hertz
The degrees per second and hertz are both units of frequency. 1 hertz equals 359.99999997 degrees per second. This means to convert degrees per second to hertz, you divide by 359.99999997.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 °/s to hertz:
We need to convert degrees per second to hertz
Since 1 Hz = 359.99999997 °/s, divide by 359.99999997
5 ÷ 359.99999997 = 0.0138888889
5 °/s = 0.0138888889 Hz

About These Units
Degrees per Second (°/s)
Degrees per second (°/s) measures angular velocity in degrees. One full rotation equals 360°/s. Gyroscopes and motion sensors report in °/s. Smartphone rotation sensors typically measure ±2000°/s. Used in navigation and gaming applications.
Hertz (Hz)
The hertz (Hz) is the SI unit of frequency equal to one cycle per second. Hertz measures sound pitch (human hearing: 20-20,000 Hz), AC power (50/60 Hz), and oscillations. Middle C on a piano is 261.63 Hz. Named after physicist Heinrich Hertz.
