About Converting Petahertz to Radians per second
Petahertz and Radians per second both describe how fast something cycles or rotates, and the conversion is a routine part of reading a car tachometer or motor spec sheet against a scientific frequency figure. Specifically: Petahertz is 1000000000000000 hertz units, and angular frequency converted by one revolution equals 2*pi radians.
Formula
radians per second = petahertz × 6.283185e+15
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 petahertz equals 1e+15 base units, and 1 radians per second equals 0.159154943092 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct petahertz-to-radians per second factor of 6.283185e+15.
Simple example
1 PHz × 6.283185e+15 = 6.283185e+15 rad/s
1 petahertz = 6.283185e+15 radians per second.
Real-world example
1,000 PHz × 6.283185e+15 = 6.283185e+18 rad/s
1,000 petahertz = 6.283185e+18 radians per second.
