In the old days, a cycle was is now a hertz(Hz). So 1 kilocycle=1000 Hz. Now the "M" means 1 million or 1*10 to the sixth power. 101 MHz=101 million cycles per seconed or 101 million Hz per seconed or 101 million vibrations per seconed.
Period is 1/440s = 0.00227 to 3 significant figures.
No. One per second.
Frequency = 75 Hz. Speed = 45 m/s
since v=f(lambda), where v is the speed in metres per second, f is the frequency in hertz and lambda the wavelength in metres , for this question, v= 440 x 1.5=660m/s
You want to tune a guitar's 'A' string to 440 hz.
For 440 Hz: λ = about 423.37 miles.
150 Hz means 150 vibrations per second.
440 Hz, 660 Hz, and 880 Hz.
440 cycles per second. 1 Hz = 1 cycle per second
The human ear can sounds between about 20 and 20,000 vibrations per second. Anything that produces this kind of vibration will be heard. Note that this may include secondary vibrations; for example, if a string has its main vibration at 15 Hz (vibrations per second), then it will also have secondary vibrations at 30 Hz. 45 Hz., etc.The human ear can sounds between about 20 and 20,000 vibrations per second.

In a simplistic way, pitches are nothing more than vibrations in the air. These vibrations happen at certain frequencies (the number of vibrations per second, measured in Hertz). The more vibrations per second the higher we perceive that pitch to be. A440 is now the tuning standard - that means that that A, in the middle of the treble staff, vibrates 440 times per second, or at 440 Hz. A note an octave higher would vibrate at 880 Hz and an octave lower vibrates at 220 Hz. Most tuning forks are pitched at A440, but you can get other notes (and even other temperaments). Those other notes vibrate at different frequencies, so the number on the tuning fork correspond to the numbers of vibrations-per-second that tuning fork makes.
440 everyones tuners are too
1000 Hz means 1000 vibrations per second.1000 Hz means 1000 vibrations per second.1000 Hz means 1000 vibrations per second.1000 Hz means 1000 vibrations per second.
depends on fork
Higher notes have higher frequencies. A typical tuning fork vibrates at 440 Hertz. That's the tone of the A above middle-C on a piano. The A one octave higher is 880 Hz (2 x 440 Hz). The A one octave above that is 1760 Hz (2 x 880 Hz). The A below middle-C is 220 Hz (440 Hz ÷ 2), the next lower A is 110 Hz, and so on. The lowest note on a piano is 27½ Hz, and the highest is 4186 Hz.
The "M" in "MHz" means millions; and "Hz" means "vibrations (or cycles) per second". Thus, MHz means "millions of vibrations per second".
