  2. Hertz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertz

    The hertz (symbol: Hz) is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI), often described as being equivalent to one event (or cycle) per second. [1] [a] The hertz is an SI derived unit whose formal expression in terms of SI base units is s −1, meaning that one hertz is one per second or the reciprocal of one second. [2]

    1 hertz (Hz) 1 to 1.66 Hz: Approximate frequency of an adult human's resting heart beat: 1 Hz: 60 bpm, common tempo in music 2 Hz: 120 bpm, common tempo in music ~7.83 Hz: Fundamental frequency of the Schumann resonances: 10 1: 10 hertz 10 Hz: Cyclic rate of a typical automobile engine at idle (equivalent to 600 rpm) 12 Hz

  4. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    Frequency (symbol f), most often measured in hertz (symbol: Hz), is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time. [1] It is also occasionally referred to as temporal frequency for clarity and to distinguish it from spatial frequency.

  5. Cycle per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_per_second

    The cycle per second is a once-common English name for the unit of frequency now known as the hertz (Hz). Cycles per second may be denoted by c.p.s., c/s, or, ambiguously, just "cycles" (Cyc., Cy., C, or c). The term comes from repetitive phenomena such as sound waves having a frequency measurable as a number of oscillations, or cycles, per ...

  6. Clock rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_rate

    It is measured in the SI unit of frequency hertz (Hz). The clock rate of the first generation of computers was measured in hertz or kilohertz (kHz), the first personal computers (PCs) to arrive throughout the 1970s and 1980s had clock rates measured in megahertz (MHz), and in the 21st century the speed of modern CPUs is commonly advertised in ...

  7. Bandwidth (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(signal_processing)

    A percent bandwidth of 100% corresponds to a ratio bandwidth of 3:1. All higher ratios up to infinity are compressed into the range 100–200%. Ratio bandwidth is often expressed in octaves (i.e., as a frequency level ) for wideband applications.

    Michelle, 60, has often sat near former President Bush, 78, at other public events in which all living presidents gather, such as funerals for high-profile U.S. politicians.

  9. Radian per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian_per_second

    The radian per second (symbol: rad⋅s −1 or rad/s) is the unit of angular velocity in the International System of Units (SI). The radian per second is also the SI unit of angular frequency (symbol ω, omega). The radian per second is defined as the angular frequency that results in the angular displacement increasing by one radian every ...
