Understanding Hertz (Hz)
Hertz (Hz) is the international standard unit for measuring frequency, representing one cycle per second. Named after physicist Heinrich Hertz, it's fundamental in electronics, telecommunications, and audio engineering.
Common Applications
- CPU Clock Speeds (GHz)
- Radio Frequencies (MHz)
- Audio Frequencies (Hz to kHz)
- Power Grid Frequency (50/60 Hz)
Conversion Guide
1 kHz (Kilohertz) = 1,000 Hz
1 MHz (Megahertz) = 1,000,000 Hz
1 GHz (Gigahertz) = 1,000,000,000 Hz
