What is the Formula to convert Seconds to Gradians?

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

Angle(Gradians) = Angle(Seconds) / 3240

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

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a microscope's fine adjustment is set to 30 arc seconds for detailed observation.
Convert this angle from seconds to Gradians.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from seconds to gradians is:

Angle(Gradians) = Angle(Seconds) / 3240

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Seconds) = 30 in the above formula.

Angle(Gradians) = 30 / 3240

Angle(Gradians) = 0.00925925926

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 " is equal to 0.00925925926 gon.

The angle is 0.00925925926 gon, in gradians.

2

Consider that a telescope's alignment needs to be within 20 arc seconds for accurate tracking.
Convert this angle from seconds to Gradians.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = 20

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from seconds to gradians is:

Angle(Gradians) = Angle(Seconds) / 3240

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Seconds) = 20 in the above formula.

Angle(Gradians) = 20 / 3240

Angle(Gradians) = 0.00617283951

Final Answer:

Therefore, 20 " is equal to 0.00617283951 gon.

The angle is 0.00617283951 gon, in gradians.

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.

Gradians

Gradians, also known as grads or gon, are a unit of angular measurement where a full circle is divided into 400 gradians. This unit is particularly useful in fields such as surveying and civil engineering, especially in some European countries. One gradian is equivalent to 0.9 degrees, making it convenient for calculating right angles and dividing circles into decimal fractions.
