Hertz (Hz) - Definition and Overview

What is Hertz?

Hertz is defined as the frequency equalling one cycle per second. The hertz is the SI derived unit for frequency in the metric system. Hertz can be abbreviated as Hz.

Summary

  • Hertz (Hz) is the standard unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI), defined as one cycle per second
  • It is widely used across various fields including physics, engineering, and music to measure the frequency of periodic phenomena such as sound waves, electromagnetic waves, and mechanical vibrations.

Picohertz (pHz) - Definition and Overview

What is Picohertz?

Picohertz is a measure of frequency equal to one trillionth(1/1000000000000) of a cycle per second. Picohertz can be abbreviated as pHz.

Summary

  • Picohertz (pHz) is a unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one trillionth of a hertz (1 pHz = 10^-12 Hz)
  • It is used to measure extremely low frequencies, often in scientific research and applications involving very slow oscillations or cycles.

How to Convert Hertz to Picohertz?

1 Hertz is equal to 1000000000000 Picohertz. To convert Hertz to Picohertz, use this simple formula:

Picohertz = Hertz x 1000000000000

So, just multiply the number of Hertz by 1000000000000 to get equivalent value in Picohertz.

Example 1:

Convert 5 Hertz to Picohertz
5 x 1000000000000 = 5000000000000 Picohertz

Example 2:

Convert 7.5 Hertz to Picohertz
7.5 x 1000000000000 = 7500000000000 Picohertz
