Microradians per second to picoradians per second converter
Convert microradians per second (µrad/s) to picoradians per second (prad/s). Calculate any value, follow the unit-factor steps and check a conversion table.
Updated · How we checkUse a decimal point, such as 2.5. Enter a value in µrad/s; the result is in prad/s.
Formula
Worked example
Convert 1 µrad/s to prad/s:
1 µrad/s ≈ 1,000,000 prad/s
Multiply your µrad/s value by the factor above. The calculator uses the full conversion factor before rounding the displayed answer.

What microradians per second measure
Microradians per second (µrad/s) represent angular speed. One unit equals 10^-6 rad/s. Angular speed measures change of angle per second, with radians as the angle unit.
Reading the result in picoradians per second
Picoradians per second (prad/s) represent angular speed. One unit equals 10^-12 rad/s. Angular speed measures change of angle per second, with radians as the angle unit.
Where this conversion helps
Compare rotational speeds represented in decimal radian scales. Revolutions per second differ by 2π. Linear speed additionally requires a radius.
How the scale changes
The input unit has a factor of 1e-6 rad/s; the output unit has a factor of 1e-12 rad/s. Multiply the entered number by the input factor, then divide by the output factor. The physical quantity stays the same while its numerical representation changes.
Reading very small or large results
Scientific notation keeps very small and large values readable: 2.5e-6 means 0.0000025. The converter calculates with 50 significant digits internally and displays up to 10. Exact unit definitions do not remove uncertainty from the original measurement.
