Convert yard/second to yard/minute
Please provide values below to convert yard/second [yd/s] to yard/minute [yd/min], or Convert yard/minute to yard/second.
1 yd/s = 60 yd/min. To convert yard/second to yard/minute, multiply the value by 60; to go the other way, divide by it (1 yd/min = 0.0166666666667 yd/s). Both units measure speed and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 yd/s = 60 yd/min
- 1 yd/min = 0.0166666666667 yd/s
- 10 yd/s = 600 yd/min
- 100 yd/s = 6000 yd/min
How to Convert Yard/second to Yard/minute
1 yd/s = 60 yd/min
Example: convert 15 yd/s to yd/min:
15 yd/s = 15 × 60 yd/min = 900 yd/min

Yard/second
Yard per second (yd/s) is a unit of speed representing the distance of one yard traveled in one second.
History/Origin
The yard has been used as a unit of length since the 12th century, primarily in the UK and the US. The yard/second as a speed unit emerged with the adoption of the yard in measurement systems, but it is less common than other units like meters per second.
Current Use
Yard per second is occasionally used in fields such as aviation, sports, and engineering within the United States and the UK for measuring speeds where imperial units are preferred.
Yard/minute
Yard per minute (yd/min) is a unit of speed representing the number of yards traveled in one minute.
History/Origin
The yard has been a traditional unit of length in the imperial system, and the yard per minute has historically been used to measure slow speeds, especially in contexts like machinery or manufacturing. Its usage has declined with the adoption of metric units.
Current Use
Today, yard per minute is rarely used in modern applications but may still be encountered in specific industries or legacy systems where imperial units are retained for measurement of speed or rate.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 yard/second in yard/minute?
1 yard/second (yd/s) = 60 yard/minute (yd/min).
How do you convert yard/second to yard/minute?
Multiply the yard/second value by 60. For example, 25 yd/s × 60 = 1500 yd/min.
What is 10 yard/second in yard/minute?
10 yd/s = 600 yd/min.
Which unit is larger, the yard/second or the yard/minute?
The yard/second is the larger unit: 1 yd/s = 60 yd/min.
