What is the Formula to convert Minutes to Seconds?

The formula to convert given angle from Minutes to Seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = Angle(Minutes) × 60

Substitute the given value of angle in minutes, i.e., Angle(Minutes) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the angle in seconds, i.e., Angle(Seconds).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that an astronomer adjusts a telescope by 15 minutes of arc to focus on a distant star.
Convert this angle from minutes to Seconds.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in minutes is:

Angle(Minutes) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from minutes to seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = Angle(Minutes) × 60

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Minutes) = 15 in the above formula.

Angle(Seconds) = 15 × 60

Angle(Seconds) = 900

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 ' is equal to 900 ".

The angle is 900 ", in seconds.

2

Consider that a surveyor sets the angle of a theodolite to 10 minutes for precise measurement.
Convert this angle from minutes to Seconds.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in minutes is:

Angle(Minutes) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from minutes to seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = Angle(Minutes) × 60

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Minutes) = 10 in the above formula.

Angle(Seconds) = 10 × 60

Angle(Seconds) = 600

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 ' is equal to 600 ".

The angle is 600 ", in seconds.

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.

Seconds

Seconds of arc, often simply called arcseconds, are a further subdivision of minutes of arc, with 60 seconds in one minute. This small unit is used for extremely precise angular measurements, such as those needed in astronomy, optics, and surveying, where even minute differences in angle can be significant.
