Discover the ease of converting grads to turns with Newtum's intuitive Grad to Turn Converter. Perfect for precise angle conversions, spark your curiosity and explore this efficient online utility!
A grad, also known as a gon or grade, is a unit of angle measurement in which one grad equals one-hundredth of a right angle. The gradian system divides a full circle into 400 grads, offering an alternative to the common degree-based system. Its use is particularly favored in fields like surveying and civil engineering where finer subdivisions are beneficial.
Definition of TurnA turn represents a complete rotation or circle and is a unit of angle measurement. It is equivalent to 360 degrees, 2π radians, or 400 grads. The concept of a turn is used in various disciplines, including mathematics, navigation, and mechanical engineering, to express full rotations or cycles.
| Grad (g) | Turn (tr) |
|---|---|
| 10 g | 0.025 tr |
| 50 g | 0.125 tr |
| 100 g | 0.25 tr |
| 150 g | 0.375 tr |
| 200 g | 0.5 tr |
| 250 g | 0.625 tr |
| 300 g | 0.75 tr |
| 350 g | 0.875 tr |
| 400 g | 1 tr |
1 grad = 0.0025 turns
1 turn = 400 grads
Example 1:
Convert 200 grads to turns:
200 grads = 200 × 0.0025 turns = 0.5 turns
Example 2:
Convert 100 grads to turns:
100 grads = 100 × 0.0025 turns = 0.25 turns
The Grad to Turn Converter has roots in the need for precise angular measurements in various fields like surveying, where the gradian system was once commonly used. As technology evolved, the converter became a vital tool for quickly and accurately converting between these units of measurement.
The Grad to Turn Converter has practical applications in real-world scenarios where precise angle conversions are necessary.
Example 1:
Convert 250 grads to turns:
250 grads = 250 × 0.0025 turns = 0.625 turns
Example 2:
Convert 50 grads to turns:
50 grads = 50 × 0.0025 turns = 0.125 turns
