  2. Hertz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertz

    s −1. 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]

  3. Tesla (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_(unit)

    The tesla (symbol: T) is the unit of magnetic flux density (also called magnetic B-field strength) in the International System of Units (SI). One tesla is equal to one weber per square metre. The unit was announced during the General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1960 and is named [1] in honour of Serbian-American electrical and ...

  4. Cycle per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_per_second

    1 Hz=1 s −1. 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 ...

  5. Bandwidth (signal processing) - Wikipedia

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

    Bandwidth is a key concept in many telecommunications applications. In radio communications, for example, bandwidth is the frequency range occupied by a modulated carrier signal. An FM radio receiver's tuner spans a limited range of frequencies. A government agency (such as the Federal Communications Commission in the United States) may ...

  6. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    Frequency is an important parameter used in science and engineering to specify the rate of oscillatory and vibratory phenomena, such as mechanical vibrations, audio signals (sound), radio waves, and light. For example, if a heart beats at a frequency of 120 times per minute (2 hertz), the period—the interval between beats—is half a second ...

  7. 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 second.

  8. Orders of magnitude (energy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(energy)

    1.7×10 −21 J. 1 kJ/mol, converted to energy per molecule [9] 2.1×10 −21 J. Thermal energy in each degree of freedom of a molecule at 25 °C (kT /2) (0.01 eV) [10] 2.856×10 −21 J. By Landauer's principle, the minimum amount of energy required at 25 °C to change one bit of information. 3–7×10 −21 J.

  9. Crystal oscillator frequencies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator_frequencies

    Crystal oscillators can be manufactured for oscillation over a wide range of frequencies, from a few kilohertz up to several hundred megahertz.Many applications call for a crystal oscillator frequency conveniently related to some other desired frequency, so hundreds of standard crystal frequencies are made in large quantities and stocked by electronics distributors.
