Calculation Info

The Section To Rai (Sec To Rai) Converter is a handy tool designed to help users convert measurements from seconds (Sec) to rai, a unit of angle measurement used primarily in certain regions and contexts. This tool simplifies the process of converting time-based measurements into angular units, making it useful for fields like astronomy, navigation, and engineering.

In this context, “seconds” (Sec) refer to a measure of time, where 1 second is equal to 1/60 of a minute, and 1 minute is 1/60 of an hour. On the other hand, “rai” is a unit of angular measurement used mainly in Thailand, where 1 rai equals 1/100 of a full circle, or 3.6 degrees. To convert seconds into rai, you need to understand the relationship between time and angles, often based on the Earth’s rotation or specific application standards.

The basic formula to convert seconds to rai depends on the context, but generally, if you are converting seconds of time into an angle based on Earth’s rotation, the formula is:

Rai = (Seconds / Total Seconds in a Full Rotation) × 100

Since the Earth completes a full rotation in approximately 86,400 seconds (24 hours), the conversion formula becomes:

Rai = (Seconds / 86,400) × 100

This means that if you have a certain number of seconds, you divide that by 86,400 to find the fraction of a full rotation, then multiply by 100 to convert that fraction into rai units. This tool automates this calculation, providing quick and accurate conversions for your needs.
