Forum rules

Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Can anybody do this?

First you have to know how many RPM in 1 radian/second, which is 9.54929659643.
The SI derived unit for frequency is the hertz and 1 hertz is equal to 60 RPM, or 6.2831853 radian/second.

For the second part you have to know how many RPM in 1 degree/second, 0.166666666667.
The SI derived unit for frequency is the hertz and 1 hertz is equal to 60 RPM, or 360 degree/second.

Finally you have to know that in an 1 gram there is 0.0338140225589 oz.
The SI derived unit for volume is the cubic meter. 1 cubic meter is equal to 33814.0225589 oz, or 1000000 grams.
