Hertz, Hz.
Vibration has amplitude and frequency, usually defined by acceleration and cycles per second (Hertz). It is measured with an accelerometer.
The frequency.
kcps means kilo-cycles per second - same as kHz (kilohertz).
Frequency = Velocity / wavelength. So Velocity = (frequency)*(wavelength) Hz is a unit meaning cycles per second or just sec-1(4 sec-1 )*(3 m) = 12 meters per second
