Revolution Per Second (rps, rev/s) is a unit in the category of Angular velocity. It is also known as revolutions per second, revolution/second, rev/second. Revolution Per Second (rps, rev/s) has a dimension of aT^-1 where T is time. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit rad/s by multiplying its value by a factor of 6.28318530718.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).

Other units in the category of Angular velocity include Degree Per Minute (°/min), Degree Per Second (°/s), Radian Per Minute (rad/min), Radian Per Second (rad/s), and Revolution Per Minute (rpm, rev/min).
