I was given the following question "An optical incremental encoder that produces 1,000 pulses per revolution is connected to the shaft of a motor. Determine the angular resolution of the encoder in degrees and the motor speed in RPM, if the encoder outputs 5,000 pulses
in 1 second."
I am not sure if this is correct but this is what is did.
Angular resolution= 360deg/1000
= 0.36deg/pulse
Using the formula frequency= (line count* RPM)/60
==> RPM= (60*f)/line count
= (60*5000)/1000
= 300rpm
Could some1 please verify this? Thanks in advance
