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).

To convert seconds to hertz, you would take the reciprocal of the time in seconds. For example, if you have 1 second, the frequency in hertz would be 1 Hz (1/1). If you have 0.5 seconds, the frequency would be 2 Hz (1/0.5).
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.
hertz Hz
The unit of measure for the frequency of a sound wave is hertz (Hz), which represents the number of cycles or vibrations per second.
The wave frequency would be 0.2 Hz. (6 waves / 30 seconds = 0.2 Hz)
A frequency of 50 Hz corresponds to a period of 0.02 seconds. Period is the time it takes for one complete cycle of a wave or vibration to occur.
