  2. Piano key frequencies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_key_frequencies

    This is a list of the fundamental frequencies in hertz (cycles per second) of the keys of a modern 88-key standard or 108-key extended piano in twelve-tone equal temperament, with the 49th key, the fifth A (called A 4), tuned to 440 Hz (referred to as A440). [1] [2] Every octave is made of twelve steps called semitones.

  3. Brain activity and meditation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_activity_and_meditation

    This spontaneous activity is classified into four main classifications based on the frequency of the activity, ranging from low frequency delta waves (< 4 Hz) commonly found during sleep to beta waves (13–30 Hz) associated with an awake and alert brain. In between these two extremes are theta waves (4–8 Hz) and alpha waves (8–12 Hz). [4]

  5. Bark scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bark_scale

    A440 Play ⓘ. 440 Hz = 4.21 or 4.39. The Bark scale is a psychoacoustical scale proposed by Eberhard Zwicker in 1961. It is named after Heinrich Barkhausen, who proposed the first subjective measurements of loudness. [1] One definition of the term is "a frequency scale on which equal distances correspond with perceptually equal distances.

    Lexically, chakra is the Indic reflex of an ancestral Indo-European form *kʷékʷlos, whence also "wheel" and "cycle" (Ancient Greek: κύκλος, romanized: kýklos). [10] [3] [4] It has both literal [11] and metaphorical uses, as in the "wheel of time" or "wheel of dharma", such as in Rigveda hymn verse 1.164.11, [12] [13] pervasive in the earliest Vedic texts.

    The sound appears to pulsate only when heard through both earphones. Time duration of 10 seconds Binaural Beats Base tone 200 Hz, beat frequency from 7 Hz to 12.9 Hz. Time duration of 9 minutes. "Binaural beats were first discovered by physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in 1839.

  9. 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 ]
