Revolutions per minute (RPM) is a unit of rotational speed that indicates the number of complete rotations an object makes around a fixed axis in one minute. It is commonly used to measure the speed of engines, motors, and other rotating machinery. For example, if a motor is said to run at 3,000 RPM, it means that the motor completes 3,000 full rotations in one minute.
