In this article I will show you how to convert 16 rotations per minute into kilohertz. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 16 rpm to khz. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Rotations per minute to Kilohertz
A rotations per minute is smaller than a kilohertz. I know that a rpm is smaller than a khz because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 16 rotations per minute into kilohertz, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for rpm to khz is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 16 rpm to khz by multiplying 1.6666666666667E-5
by the number of rotations per minute we have, which is 16.
So, the answer to the question "what is 16 rotations per minute in kilohertz?" is 0.00026666666666667 khz.

Best Conversion Unit for 16 rpm
Sometimes when you work with conversions from one unit to another, the numbers can get a little confusing. Especially when dealing with really large numbers.
I've also calculated what the best unit of measurement is for 16 rpm.
To determine which unit is best, I decided to define that as being the unit of measurement which is as low as possible, without going below 1. Smaller numbers are more easily understood and can make it easier for you to understand the measurement.
The best unit of measurement I have found for 16 rpm is radians per second and the amount is 1.6750418760469 rps.
