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 Turns.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in minutes is:

Angle(Minutes) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from minutes to turns is:

Angle(Turns) = Angle(Minutes) / 21600

Substitution:

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

Angle(Turns) = 15 / 21600

Angle(Turns) = 0.00069444444

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 ' is equal to 0.00069444444 turn.

The angle is 0.00069444444 turn, in turns.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The angle in minutes is:

Angle(Minutes) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from minutes to turns is:

Angle(Turns) = Angle(Minutes) / 21600

Substitution:

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

Angle(Turns) = 10 / 21600

Angle(Turns) = 0.00046296296

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 ' is equal to 0.00046296296 turn.

The angle is 0.00046296296 turn, in turns.

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.

Turns

A turn, also known as a revolution or full circle, represents a complete rotation around a central point and is equal to 360 degrees or 2π radians. Turns are used in various disciplines, including engineering, navigation, and geometry, to describe full rotations. The concept of turns is deeply rooted in both mathematical theory and practical applications, such as in the design of gears and wheels.
