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.
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: Acoustic – the lowest possible frequency that a human can hear [3] 18 Hz: Average house cat's purr 24 Hz: Common frame rate of movies 27.5 Hz
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 ]

The waveform of 230 V and 50 Hz compared with 120 V and 60 Hz. The utility frequency, (power) line frequency (American English) or mains frequency (British English) is the nominal frequency of the oscillations of alternating current (AC) in a wide area synchronous grid transmitted from a power station to the end-user.
In the United States, the standard "city" dial tone was a 600 Hz tone that was amplitude-modulated at 120 Hz. [3] Some dial tones were simply adapted from 60 Hz AC line current. In the UK, the standard Post Office dialing tone was 33 Hz; it was generated by a motor-driven ringing machine in most exchanges and by a vibrating-reed generator in ...
The HZ-600 was the first SD synthesizer, and was the only SD synthesizer built to look like a "professional" synthesizer, i.e., without built-in speakers or auto-accompaniment controls.
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.
