I assume you mean measure the frequency of vibration of a mechanical system or part. You use a stroboscope, which is a light that flashes briefly and rapidly. You shine the light on the object and adjust the frequency of the strobe by turning a dial until the object stops moving. You then read the dial to determine the frequency. there are steps you have to take to avoid synchronizing to a subharmonic of the base frequency. For example, if the object is vibrating at 100Hz (10ms), running the strobe at 50hz will also stop the motion, as it will pick up every other cycle.

What instrument is used to measure electrical frequency?
Frequency counter
What does a watt- hour measure?
A watt meter measures the electric power in watts from circuits. They can measure utility frequency, audio frequency power and radio frequency measurement.
What is a measure of how often you perform an activity?
frequency
How many miles is in MHz?
None.A mile is a measure of distance. A MHz is measure of frequency or the reciprocal of time. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
How is 60hz in decibel?
Hz is a measure of frequency. Decibel is a measure of loudness/volume/amplitude. The two can not be equated.
How much HZ are in a mile at the speed of 30mph?
Hertz is a measure of frequency, and has nothing to do with speed problems.Hertz is a measure of frequency, and has nothing to do with speed problems.Hertz is a measure of frequency, and has nothing to do with speed problems.Hertz is a measure of frequency, and has nothing to do with speed problems.
What is frequency's unit of measure?
Hertz, hz= 1/second is the unit measure of frequency.
Is the measure of loudness frequency or decibels?
The decibel is a measure of loudness. Frequency is related to pitch.
Do the energy of a mechanical wave depends on the frequency of the wave?
Yes, energy transfer for mechanical waves is dependant on frequency as well as amplitude. Energy of electromagnetic waves, however, does not rely on frequency but solely on amplitude.
What is frequency meter?
frequency meter is used to measure the frequency of unknown frequency signal.
How you would measure the mechanical advantage of a bicycle?
Describe how you would measure the mechanical advantage of a bicycle.
What is the unit measure of frequency?
Hertz, hz= 1/second is the unit measure of frequency.
What instrument do you use to measure the electrical and mechanical vibrations?
What instrument do we use to measure the electrical and mechanical vibrations
How crystal oscillator provides good frequency stability?
A: It is a mechanical device once it is exited it will oscillate at its mechanical frequency unless the mechanics changes it will not drift as compered to other oscillators
Is the measure of how fast particles move crest or frequency?
frequency
What instrument is used to measure electrical frequency?
Frequency counter
What quantity is hertz used to measure?
One would measure hertz by using an analog ammeter. Hertz can be measure in kilohertz. Hertz is the unit used to measure frequency. Any instrument that measures frequency can be used to measure hertz. 1 hertz is 1 cycle per second. By radio frequency.
