A unit in frequency measured in cycles per second?
That's the unit of frequency ... "cycles per second", or simply "cycles".It has now been officially renamed the "Hertz".
How many hertzs are in one second?
1 hertz = 1 cycle per second 1 megahertz = 1000 cycles per second 1 gigahertz = 1000000000 cycles per second 1 terahertz = 1000000000000 cycles per second tera hertz is a radiation that can destroy human flesh
How many cycles per second is 1 kilohertz?
1000 ( one thousand) cycles per second. kilo - prefix meaning one thousand
How do you find out how many waves are produced in 5 minutes with a frequency of 2 Hz?
Hz = cycles/second. Therefore, at 2Hz, you're generating two complete cycles (or what I believe you refer to as waves) every second. So 2 cycles x 60 seconds = 120 cycles per minute. 120 cycles x 5 minutes = 600 cycles.
What is the term for vibrates in cycles per second in music?
Pitch.
Why wont anyone invent a machine that can perform litterally HUNDREDS of calculations per second?
The current machines are in the billions. They have come out with RISC chips that only do thousands per second.
What does 102.5 MHz represent?
One MHz represents one million cycles per second. The speed of microprocessors, called the clock speed, is measured in megahertz. 102.5 MHZ means 102.5 Million cycles per second that processor can work.
What is the frequency of 3cycles in 12 seconds?
3 cycles / 12 seconds = 0.25 cycles / second, or 0.25 Hz.3 cycles / 12 seconds = 0.25 cycles / second, or 0.25 Hz.3 cycles / 12 seconds = 0.25 cycles / second, or 0.25 Hz.3 cycles / 12 seconds = 0.25 cycles / second, or 0.25 Hz.
Frequency is a measurement of what pass per second?
Frequency is a measurement of how many cycles, or wave crests, there are per second. It is measured in Hertz, equal to cycles/second.Frequency is a measurement of how many cycles, or wave crests, there are per second.

4 megahertz is how many cycles a second?
If 1Hz is equivalent to 1/s or 1 cycle/s, then 4MHz (megahertz) is equivalent to 4 million cycles/second.
How is a wave frequency different from its speed?
Frequency is cycles per second - for instance, how many wave crests pass every second. SI units are 1/second, also known as hertz. Speed is measured in meters/second. The relationship between the two is: frequency x wavelength = speed As an example, all electromagnetic waves (such as light) go at the same speed in a vacuum - about 300,000 kilometers/second. But they come in different frequencies - from less than 1 megahertz (millions of cycles per second), through gigahertz (billions of cycles per second), terahertz (trillions of cycles per second - for visible light), petahertz, exahertz (for gamma radiation).
What are the factors to measure the speed of a computer system?
It can be Hertz (cycles per second). You'll see this with MHz (millions of cycles per second), GHz (billions of cycles per second). It's often used in marketing and specifications. You may also see Instructions Per Second (IPS) or FLoating point OPerations per Second (FLOPS)
A gigahertz is how many cycles per second?
Yes, 1 gigahertz is 1 billion cycles per second
A megahertz is cycles per second?
One hertz is one cycle per second... A megahertz is 1 million cycles per second
How many cycles per second is 1GHz?
according to my text book "10^9 cycles per second. "
The higher the GHz the faster the computer processor speed?
yep, the more GHz u have the faster the processor GHz stands for gigaherz or the amount of processor cycles per second 1Hz is one cycle per second. 1KHz is 1000 cycles per second 1 MHz is 1000 kila cycles per second or 1,000,000 cycles per second 1 GHZ is 1000 mega cycles per second or 1000,000,000 cycles per second and so on....
What is the formula to convert cycles per second into hertz?
Cycles per second = Hertz. In other words they are the same.
