Subject: Decimal Gramophone
Dear Calendar People
Some time ago, I realised the a Vinyl LP, which goes round at 33 1/3 revolutions per minute, would in decimal time, go round exactly 48 revolutions per milliday. Also a 45 would be a 65.
Conversions for other speeds for gramophone records would be:
16 2/3 revolutions per minute = 24 revolutions per milliday
33 1/3 revolutions per minute = 48 revolutions per milliday
45 revolutions per minutes = 64.8 revolutions per milliday about 65 revolutions per milliday
78 revolutions per minute = 112.32 revolutions per milliday about 112 revolutions per milliday
All these speeds are approximately an integer multiple of 5 5/9 revolutions per minute = 8 revolutions per milliday:
3: 16 2/3 revolution per minute = 24 revolutions per milliday
6: 33 1/3 revolutions per minute = 48 revolutions per milliday
8: 44 4/9 revolutions per minutes = 64 revolutions per milliday
14: 77 7/9 revolutions per minute = 112 revolutions per milliday
