Converting from Second of arc (") to Radian (rad)

What is Second of arc (")

Second of arc ("), also known as arcsecond, is a unit of angular measurement equal to 1/3600 of a degree. It is commonly used in fields such as astronomy and navigation to measure small angles.

What is Radian (rad)

Radian (rad) is the standard unit of angular measurement in the International System of Units (SI). One radian is defined as the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to the radius of the circle. Radians are used in mathematics, physics, and engineering.
