RPM Revs Per Minute (how many times it spins round) is all to do with the cogs or gears linking the motor to the end shaft. The smaller the gear the greater rpm the bigger the gear the slower rpm. Someone although did tell me that 3000 rpm is 80 mph but that is false, it all depends on the gears.

You don't. RPM is revolutions per minute and not meters per minute, and not any distance per minute. A revolution per minute (rpm) is one full circle per minute ( 2 pi radians per minute or 360 degrees per minute )

Of course you can. RPM means the number of revolutions per minute. If you know the radius of the wheel than it's circumference is 2*Pi*r. If you know the diameter, the circumference is Pi*d. Imagine a tape measure along the rolling surface of the wheel. As the wheel turns, that tape is placed down on the street, one circumference worth of length per full rotation.

For example. if the diameter is 1 m (same as the radius being 1/2 meter) then per revolution you cover 3.14159 meters. If you were to go at 1000 rpm that translates into 3141.59 meters or 3.1 km per minute leaving you with a trailblazing 180 km/h. Catch me if you can.........

How fast is mach 0.8 or 272.23 meters per second in RPM?

To convert speed from meters per second (m/s) to revolutions per minute (RPM), you need to know the circumference of the rotating object. Without that information, it is not possible to directly convert mach 0.8 or 272.23 m/s to RPM. RPM is a measure of rotational speed, whereas mach is a unit of relative velocity to the speed of sound.


Can revolution per minute convert to liters per minute?

Not in any sensible way. RPM is a measure of (angular) velocity whereas litres per minute is a rate of flow. Your hard disk will have an rpm but what does litres per miute mean in terms of the disk?
