Minutes of arc
A Minute of arc or arcminute is a unit of measurement of an angle which is equal to 1/60 of a degree or π/10800 of a radian. The standard symbol for the arcminute is the prime(‘) or single quote. Thus One arcminute is written as 1’. It is also abbreviated asarcmin or amin.
Second of arc
A Second of arc or arcsecond is a unit of measurement of an angle which is equal to 1/60 of an arcminute or 1/3600 of a degree or π/648000 of a radian. The standard symbol for the arcsecond is the double prime(“) or double quote. Thus One arcsecond is written as 1”. It is also abbreviated as arcsec or asec.
How to convert minutes of arc to second of arc
A Minute of arc = 1/60 degree
Then, 1° = 60 arcmin
A Second of arc = 1/3600 degree
Then, 1° = 3600 arcsec
Therefore, 60 arcmin = 3600 arcsec
Then, 1 arcmin = 3600/60 = 60 arcsec
Thus 1 amin = 60 asec
Example 1:
Convert 15 minutes of arc to second of arc
1 amin = 60 asec
Therefore, 15 amin = 15 * 60 = 900 asec
Example 2:
Convert 50 minutes of arc to second of arc
1 amin = 60 asec
Therefore, 50 amin = 50 * 60 = 3000 asec
