Hertz is a unit of measuring frequency. It is 'cycles per second' or just second^-1 or 1/seconds. It is not the same as seconds (a measure of time or elapsed time).

What are the standard units for frequency?
hertz Hz
1 nanoseconds make how many megaherz?
Answer: 1000 Megahertz or 1 Gigahertz. Seconds are one of many ways to measure time intervals; Frequency is the repetition of (other) intervals per unit time. As Frequency is the reciprocal of Time, so Hertz is the Reciprocal of Seconds. t = 1 / f, f = 1 / t, Hertz = 1 / Seconds, Seconds = 1 / Hertz A period of 1 nanosecond, 1 / 1,000,000,000 second, corresponds to a frequency of 1,000,000,000 Hertz.
What is the wave frequency in hertz of 6 waves in 30 seconds?
5
What is the unit of measure for the frequency of a sound wave?
Hertz or seconds-1
Does hertz mean the same as cycles per second?
Yes. 1 Hertz (Hz.) = 1 cycle per second Units are 1/seconds = sec^-1
How do you calculate hertz?
One Hertz is equal to one cycle/second.
What is hertz a unit of?
Hertz is a unit of frequency. It is equivalent to 1/s (seconds).
What are the standard units for frequency?
hertz Hz
What is the period of a wave that has a frequency of 16.1 hertz?
The reciprocal of the frequency. Since hertz basically means "1 / seconds", this reciprocal is in seconds.
How do you calculate the period of a wave of frequency 75 Hz?
The period is the reciprocal of the frequency, in other words, one divide by the frequency. If the frequency is in Hertz, the period is in seconds.
What is 511 reciprocal seconds?
0.00196 hertz
How do you convert seconds to hertz?
Hertz are a frquency, so if you have 1 hertz it is 1 hertz/second if you have 2 hertz =2 hertz second and so on, so a Intel processor at 2.4ghz would be 2.4 billion hertz a second.
What is the period of a 261 Hertz sound wave is?
The period of a 261 Hertz sound wave is 0.000383 Seconds
Convert hertz per seconds squared to kilohertz per hours squared?
Conversion: hertz per seconds squared x 12,960 = kilohertz per hours squared
A wave frequency of 10 hertz would correspond to a period of how many seconds?
0.1 seconds
What is the hertz of a wave that breaks every 5 seconds?
five
How do you calculate wave frequency in hertz?
hertz is the amount of repeating times in a second. you would have to record it and count repetitions, or frequency.
