Symbolically, "cycle per second" units are "cycle/second", while hertz is "Hz" or "s −1 ". [2] For higher frequencies, kilocycles (kc), as an abbreviation of kilocycles per second were often used on components or devices. Other higher units like megacycle (Mc) and less commonly kilomegacycle (kMc) were used before 1960 [3] and in some later ...
The hertz is defined as one per second for periodic events. The International Committee for Weights and Measures defined the second as "the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom" [3] [4] and then adds: "It follows that the hyperfine splitting in the ground state of the ...
[2] [3] This is surpassed by the CPU-Z overclocking record for the highest CPU clock rate at 8.79433 GHz with an AMD FX-8350 Piledriver-based chip bathed in LN2, achieved in November 2012. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] It is also surpassed by the slightly slower AMD FX-8370 overclocked to 8.72 GHz which tops off the HWBOT frequency rankings.
A pendulum with a period of 2.8 s and a frequency of 0.36 Hz. For cyclical phenomena such as oscillations, waves, or for examples of simple harmonic motion, the term frequency is defined as the number of cycles or repetitions per unit of time. The conventional symbol for frequency is f or ν (the Greek letter nu) is also used. [3]

[1] [2] For example, to get the frequency one semitone up from A 4 (A ♯ 4), multiply 440 Hz by the twelfth root of two. To go from A 4 up two semitones (one whole tone ) to B 4 , multiply 440 twice by the twelfth root of two (or once by the sixth root of two, approximately 1.122462).
For example, the speed of sound in water is 1,497 m/s, and the human body is about 0.5 m thick, so the PRF for ultrasound images of the human body should be less than about 2 kHz (1,497/0.5). As another example, ocean depth is approximately 2 km, so sound takes over a second to return from the sea floor.
