What is the Formula to convert Turns to Sextants?

The formula to convert given angle from Turns to Sextants is:

Angle(Sextants) = Angle(Turns) × 6

Substitute the given value of angle in turns, i.e., Angle(Turns) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the angle in sextants, i.e., Angle(Sextants).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a turntable rotates by 0.25 turns to play a vinyl record.
Convert this rotation from turns to Sextants.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in turns is:

Angle(Turns) = 0.25

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from turns to sextants is:

Angle(Sextants) = Angle(Turns) × 6

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Turns) = 0.25 in the above formula.

Angle(Sextants) = 0.25 × 6

Angle(Sextants) = 1.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.25 turn is equal to 1.5 sextant.

The angle is 1.5 sextant, in sextants.

2

Consider that a wind turbine completes 2 turns in a light breeze.
Convert this rotation from turns to Sextants.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in turns is:

Angle(Turns) = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from turns to sextants is:

Angle(Sextants) = Angle(Turns) × 6

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Turns) = 2 in the above formula.

Angle(Sextants) = 2 × 6

Angle(Sextants) = 12

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 turn is equal to 12 sextant.

The angle is 12 sextant, in sextants.

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.

Sextants

Sextants are a unit of angular measurement used primarily in navigation and astronomy, representing one-sixth of a full circle, or 60 degrees. The sextant instrument, named after this unit, is used to measure the angle between two visible objects, such as a star and the horizon, enabling precise determination of latitude and longitude at sea.
