Each degree is equal to 60 minutes, each minute is equal to 60 seconds; to convert seconds to minutes, divide the seconds by 60 and add to the minutes.
Ex. (Assume the asterisk (*) is a degree sign)
51* 43' 20"
51* + 43' + (20/60)'
51* + 43' + (1/3)'
Answer: 51* 43 (1/3)'
Hopefully this is answering the question you had. If you want to convert Minutes and seconds into decimal degrees, use either formula below:
((Seconds/60) + Minutes)/60 + Degrees
or
Degrees + (Minutes/60) + (seconds/3600)
Perhaps you mean arcsecond. A full circle has 360° (360 degrees); a degree is divided into 60 minutes (or arcminutes), and a minute is divided into 60 seconds (or arcseconds). Multiply everything together to get the amount of seconds in a circle.
7.045 seconds x 1 minute/ 60 seconds x 1 hour/ 60 minutes = .0019569 hours
minutes: 36,600 minutes seconds:2,196,000
To calculate the distance traveled in 3 minutes running at a rate of 6 meters per second, first convert 3 minutes to seconds (3 minutes = 180 seconds). Then, multiply the speed (6 meters per second) by the time (180 seconds) to find the total distance. Therefore, the distance traveled would be 6 meters/second x 180 seconds = 1080 meters.
to solve 389 minutes into seconds you would multiply the minutes by how many seconds are in a minute 389x60=23340 seconds. and to solve 389 minutes into hours, you would divide the minutes into how many minutes there are in an hour 389/60 = 6.483333333333333333333333333 rounded to 6.483 hours... the rest... uhh... someone else can figure it out
d degrees + m minutes + s seconds = d + m/60 + s/3600 degrees in decimal form.
Some scientific caculators can convert degrees minutes and seconds into decimal degrees and vice versa as for example 60045'18'' = 60.755
The complement of an angle is found by subtracting the angle from 90 degrees. For an angle measuring 33 degrees, 31 minutes, and 12 seconds, you first convert it to a single unit if needed. The calculation is as follows: 90 degrees minus 33 degrees 31 minutes 12 seconds equals 56 degrees 28 minutes 48 seconds. Therefore, the complement of the angle is 56 degrees 28 minutes 48 seconds.
Degrees: ° Minutes: ' Seconds: "
12 degrees. There are 60 mins in a degree, so 0.65*60 is 39 mins 12 degrees, 39 minutes.
In Microsoft Excel, you can enter degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS) by using the format degrees° minutes' seconds". For example, to enter 30 degrees, 15 minutes, and 20 seconds, you would input 30° 15' 20" in a cell. Alternatively, you can convert DMS to decimal degrees using the formula =degrees + minutes/60 + seconds/3600. Excel will recognize the DMS format if it's entered correctly and can perform calculations with it.
To convert minutes to degrees, we note that 1 minute equals 6 degrees (since 360 degrees in a circle divided by 60 minutes gives 6 degrees per minute). Therefore, 840 minutes equals 840 × 6 = 5040 degrees. For the seconds, since there are 60 seconds in a minute, 10800 seconds is equivalent to 180 minutes, which equals 180 × 6 = 1080 degrees. Adding these together, the total number of degrees is 5040 + 1080 = 6120 degrees.
Divide that by 60 to get degrees. If you want degrees and minutes, do an integer division by 60; the remainder will be the minutes. Seconds will of course be zero in this case.
It designates a point on earth that is 38 degrees 53 minutes 23 seconds north of the equator and 77 degrees 00 minutes 27 seconds west of the Greenwich Meridian
Works on the same principle as "60 seconds = 1 minute and 60 minutes = 1 hour (or degree in this case)... So for example: 2 degrees, 45 Minutes and 20 seconds is worked as follows: Now, 20 seconds = 0.33 minutes (i.e. 20/60); add to 45 minutes to get 45.33 minutes.. 45.33 minutes = 45.33/60 degrees = 0.7555 degrees. Therefore, final answer is 2 + 0.7555 = 2.7555 degrees.... Hope this helps!!
what is the longitude and latitude of Washington DC in degrees, minutes, and seconds
The latitude and longitude are input in degrees, so you might need to convert to degrees from degrees:minutes:seconds. There are 60 seconds in 1 minute and 60 minutes in 1 degree. So, for example: 65:45:36 south latitude converts to -(65 degrees + (45 minutes * (1 degree/60 minutes)) + (36 seconds * (1 minute/60 seconds) * (1 degree/60 minutes))) = -65.76 degrees latitude
