What are Arcseconds and Turns?

  1. Arcseconds:
    • Arcseconds are a unit of angular measurement.
    • One arcsecond represents 1/3600 of a degree.
    • They are also referred to as seconds of arc.
  2. Turns:
    • A turn (or revolution) is a complete rotation of 360 degrees.
    • It is a unit used to describe a full circular rotation.
    • Turns are synonymous with circles or revolutions.

How to Convert Seconds of Arc to Turn

  1. Understand the relationship between units:
    • 1 turn = 360 degrees
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes
    • 1 arcminute = 60 arcseconds
  2. Combine these relationships:
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes × 60 arcseconds per arcminute
    • 1 degree = 3600 arcseconds
    • 1 turn = 360 degrees × 3600 arcseconds per degree
  3. Calculate the total number of arcseconds in one turn:
    • 1 turn = 360 × 3600 arcseconds
    • 1 turn = 1,296,000 arcseconds
  4. Convert arcseconds to turns:
    • To convert from arcseconds to turns, you divide the number of arcseconds by 1,296,000.
    • turns = arcseconds​ ÷ 1,296,000

Example

  • Convert 10,000 arcseconds to turns:
    • turns = 10,000 arcseconds ÷ 1,296,000
    • turns ≈ 0.0077

That’s it! You now know how to convert arcseconds to turns.
