Examples

1

Consider that a mechanical watch's gear rotates by 12 diameter parts.
Convert this rotation from diameter parts to Minutes.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in diameter parts is:

Angle(Diameter Parts) = 12

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from diameter parts to minutes is:

Angle(Minutes) = Angle(Diameter Parts) × 21600 / 376.991

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Diameter Parts) = 12 in the above formula.

Angle(Minutes) = 12 × 21600 / 376.991

Angle(Minutes) = 687.5496

Final Answer:

Therefore, 12 diameter part is equal to 687.5496 '.

The angle is 687.5496 ', in minutes.

2

Consider that a precision tool rotates by 16 diameter parts for accurate measurements.
Convert this rotation from diameter parts to Minutes.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in diameter parts is:

Angle(Diameter Parts) = 16

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from diameter parts to minutes is:

Angle(Minutes) = Angle(Diameter Parts) × 21600 / 376.991

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Diameter Parts) = 16 in the above formula.

Angle(Minutes) = 16 × 21600 / 376.991

Angle(Minutes) = 916.7328

Final Answer:

Therefore, 16 diameter part is equal to 916.7328 '.

The angle is 916.7328 ', in minutes.

Diameter Parts

Diameter parts are a less common unit of angular measurement, historically used to describe angles in terms of the fractional parts of a circle's diameter. This unit was more prevalent in classical geometry and certain types of mechanical design, where direct relationships between linear measurements and angles were essential.

Minutes

Minutes of arc are a finer subdivision of degrees, with 60 minutes making up one degree. Each minute is further divided into 60 seconds of arc. This unit allows for precise angular measurements and is commonly used in fields like astronomy, navigation, and geodesy, where detailed accuracy is required for mapping and celestial observations.
